In an Instagram post, Alibaba also gave his opinion about the worrisome state of affairs in Nigeria and gave examples of how some notable Nigerians are recognized and have become celebrated stars outside the shores of the country.

The video which has begun to generate criticisms and counter-criticisms on social media platforms showed a white man giving his two cents about the country.

In the video, the American who appeared not to be a fan of the country said that everything he has read about the country has been bad.

He said people in power want to hold everyone at ransom especially the women and children.

The American also stated that Nigerian writers often write about the pathetic state of affairs of the country.

Ali Baba shared the video with the caption:

“And we are banning #thisisNigeria… The world is a global village now. People can see the things that happen here. Before you write this off, #WoleSoyinka was recognized outside Nigeria before we did 20 years after.

“Check out our sportsmen. #chimamandangoziadichie Is another point. Even our crude oil gets treated better and given value after it leaves our shores. Aba made shoes only get respected when they carry a foreign label.

“Many of our girls only get noticed after they become white… @asaofficial was on my concert in Nigeria in the early 2000s… she had to go out to make us appreciate. A Nigerian drummer won a Grammy…

“We No even recognize am here. Fela was jailed here and hailed overseas. Halliburton guys were jailed in America for giving bribes… but the people who received the bribe are walking free.

“Someone gets jailed for things he runs to hide from in Nigeria… The list is endless.”
