Why Nigeria is not the worst country in the world — Reno Omokri

Controversial writer and activist, Reno Omokri cites the crisis in Ukraine and Sudan as he states why Nigeria is not the worst country in the world.

Amidst the effort to evacuate stranded Nigerians in Sudan, the activist stirred reactions on social media with a notion to correct a stereotype about Nigeria.

According to Reno Omokri, when crises faced Nigerians in Ukraine, Sudan, and South Africa, the default option was to return home for safety.

He argued that despite the claimed greener pasture outside Nigeria, it comes with just as many unforeseen issues.

In his words …

“Before we open our mouths to run down Nigeria and call or the worst country in the world (it is not), let us learn from the Sudan crisis. With war raging in Sudan, what happened to Nigerians who had japa’ed to Sudan?

They are all trying to come home. When war hit Ukraine, what happened to Nigerians there? They were airlifted back home. When the xenophobic attacks erupted in South Africa, Nigerians were begging to be airlifted back home.

Why? Because not all that glitters is gold. And not every house is as good as your home. May God bless Nigeria and Nigerians!” he added.
