Nigerians having a reputation as criminals is not a mistake, it is intentional.

This series explores how Nigeria and Nigerians are intentionally branded as criminals to support the economic and social goals of foreign interests. I will also be describing how Nigerians, and other people, can push back against these attempts to damage our reputation.

Part three describes the economic strategy behind branding Nigeria and Nigerians as Criminals. It explains how money works for for real, and why certain big developments in our nation are a direct threat to the economic stability of the very countries who talk down on us the most.

If you are interested in this, please write a comment below and I will see what I can do to incorporate answers to questions in the final part of the series.
