Unbelievable. Can't believe some of the things these people write. US
gossip site Radar Online yesterday scolded Mariah Carey in an article
posted on their site, saying she shouldn't have accepted to do a gig in a
country known for 'terror, death and fraud'. What nonsense, they can
talk when the US is the number one crime capital of the world. Read
the Radar Online article below...
Mariah Carey proudly posted a pic of herself in a slinky yellow
dress and wrote, “Backstage in Nigeria” on Saturday. But maybe
the songbird should have done some homework before agreeing to
the gig?
Her show was at Access Bank’s Christmas Party which was also
a farewell bash for the bank’s managing director. And while
Access Bank is a reputable financial institution, should Carey have
known a few basics about the African nation before taking the
paycheck?
Ironically — given that she was performing for bankers — it
seems Carey wasn’t aware Nigeria is well-known as the center
of the world’s email financial crimes! Nigeria is even part of the
name — as in “Nigerian 411 Scams.”
Nigeria is also, according to the United Nations, the hub of human
trafficking as “a source, destination and transit country.
AND, just for good measure, there are mass killings going on in two
Nigerian states right now, and according to Human Rights Watch, the
violence is being ignored by federal authorities.
“Systemic corruption in the Nigeria Police Force” is the problem, a
HRW spokesperson told CNN.
Carey isn’t the first performer who has taken a paycheck for
appearing in countries known for terror, death and fraud.
