Most of them are arms chair analysts, they never traveled outside their enclave yet they'll claim being atop of any news source without acknowledging or quoting the original sources 2 Likes 1 Share |

ZUBY77: Why divide into two horizontally? Okay what if I say we divide it vertically? Nigeria with be in the West of Africa. What happened to cardinal points in map interpretation? In every maps, if you must decide, divide into 4 because dividing into two would be biased neglecting different results that can arise from either vertical or horizontal division. 1 Like |

CNN has just confirmed that CIA/B.O. imported ISIS/Bokoharam into Nigeria/Africa.. That is the CNN style of classified reports, so they know very well what they are doing. |

The thing I find funny the most are Nigerians who now automatically believe the country is in the North of Africa because the white man said so. These are the types who would happily live in colonial times and the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. 2 Likes |

XperiaZ6: I don't have time for inaccurate propaganda pictures. Post the geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude) of Madagascar and I'll tell you where it belongs. Let me ask you a question: are Senegal, Togo, Cape Verde, Ghana, Gambia et al in the Western Hemisphere based on real geographical coordinates - YES or NO? If you can an answer to that - you'd know where Nigeria belongs. |

Maybe they meant similar oil producers in the north Africa.... Bottomline# some lecturers might give you rubbish but not accept it from you and that's why many students fail in school,op learn to use your head coz none is perfect |

Innocent mistake or deliberate misinformation. I think it's the latter. |

KINGwax007:Sorry my guy. All blacks are not daft. It is just that some people having twisted history, twisted the law now want to twist geography! Countries bounded in their north by the Mediteranean are in North Africa. Nigeria is a West African country, you Geography twisters. |

ZUBY77: There is nothing irrelevant there. Can you say Benue state is in Southern Nigeria because it's south of River Benue, or can you say Cross River state is in the South East, and your head won't go for it? Why not also say that Ethiopia and Central African Republic are in North Africa, since they are north of the Equator? You don't attempt to distort the geopolitical structure of a region and say it's no big deal. Google is free to access, so CNN should always verify their news before giving them out. They have a reputation to protect. |
Re: CNN Refers To Nigeria As A North African Country by Henovy: 2:23pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
ZUBY77:Ah ah. Just to justify the mistake of CNN abi. I grow up in the early sixties to know Nigeria to be a West African country. Africa has always been divided geographically into North, South, East, West and Central Africa. |

This is a deliberate action to make Nigeria look like a North African country with allies and allegiance to ISIS. That's how I sees it though. |

XperiaZ6:/ LOL. This is exactly what I am saying. This brother has been taught all his life that Nigeria is in West Africa. Oyibo goofed and said that Nigeria is in North Africa. And this brother is willing, without any line of persuasion, to throw away his knowledge because some misguided oyibo made a mistake. Do you need anymore evidence to show how Africans could be myopic? The mind is a terrible thing to waste. / |
