#LindaIkeji Makes Jest Of Nigerians Protesting #WhereIsOurMoney

Linda ikaji

Typical of the entertainment industry, a top Nigerian blogger, Linda Ikeji made fun of a picture of Dr. Peregrino Brimah, protesting over the looted $20 billion national oil revenue at the Nigerian embassy in New York on February 22nd, 2014. See: LindaIkaji :

“LMAO. Some people will not kill me with lafta. Where’s our N20billion ooo? Lol”

“LMAO. Some people will not kill me with lafta. Where’s our N20billion ooo? Lol”

Sadly, Linda did not even know Nigeria had lost over $20 billion (United States dollars), on February 25th when she posted the image. She said, N20 billion (naira). Commentators on her blog corrected her politely:

$20 billion DOLLARS booboo…not naira. it’s such a Damn shame

A lot about the state of Nigeria’s youth can be read from this. $20 billion missing funds has been the reason for global protests as reported by media worldwide. The scandal involving the NNPC and federal government of Nigeria has put Nigeria’s fragile democracy on the edge, yet our youth do not know this money is missing and make fun of a protest for N20billion, which is even too large a sum to go missing and should warrant as fervent protest.

#WhereIsOurMoney protests have continued across the world as Nigeria’s minister of the economy admitted to BBC that she did not know where the money is and more billions have been found missing.

Below are more images of the protest and text of the flyers distributed to everyone who went in and out of the embassy through out the evening.

Flyers distributed:

GOVERNMENT TYRANNY AND ECONOMIC TERRORISM IN NIGERIA

168 Million Nigerians are under siege. At the mercy of a reckless, fascist government that has made corruption its deadly official policy. The Nigerian people demand sanctions and travel bans on political officers and global attention to the economic terrorism. There are 100 million destitute Nigerians while government officials loot billions of US Dollars every year. We call for global attention to the crises to the largest African nation and a very important nation in Africa and the world. What affects one man, affects all men.
