Report just aired on the BBC says that there has been a cholera out-break in Nigeria with over 300 people already being "hosted" by God. I waited patiently to see sights of the location of the outbreak but alas! throughout the 2 or 3minutes the report lasted the BBC brought pictures it labeled ""Library Pictures". As usual it was probably pictures of my compatriots in a village in Oke-Ogun. In fact it could be a picture from any village in sub-sahara Africa...naked children, dilapidated mud-houses....pictures kept in the BBC Library for occasions like this; pictures of a perpetually odious Nigeria. When shall the BBC stop this unceasing smear campaign against my country? Oladosu |
