While I respect International news agency, Al-jazeera and even hope to work for them some day somebody has to call them out on what they posted the other day about Nigerian women. In a effort to praise a Nigerian woman who was a mechanic they inadvertently called Nigerian women prostitutes which set off a whole lot of people especially Nigerians. I mean come on Al-jazeera, you should have thought a bit more before posting that, a lot of Nigerian women are hardworking and a lot of them are entrepreneurs implying in anyway whether intentionally or by mistake that most of them are prostitutes is an affront and frankly an apology should be issued.
Here is a picture of the post that caused all the controversy and some reactions from angry Nigerians.
