his controversial comment on Nigerians as fraudsters.
Ginuwine
American singer, dancer and actor, Elgin Baylor Lumpkin, better
known by his stage name as Ginuwine, has leveled a fresh case of fraud
on the shoulders of a Nigerians.
The 'Love You More' crooner, yesterday took to his
Instagram and warned his over 300,000 followers, saying he had just
learnt that someone was using his photo to trick people into giving
money on Facebook, and he described the criminal act as a 'Nigerian scam'.
"I’m being told someone is using my name to trick people into
giving money THIS IS NOT ME!!!! It’s a Nigerian scam going on so if
anyone on any page that has my name ask for money curse they ass out
people will do anything for a dollar it’s crazy," he wrote.
As expected, his statement offended Nigerians, and they are
dragging him for filth, but some of his fans claim that the singer never
meant that the scam was being masterminded by a Nigerian, only that he
described same as a scam Nigerians are famous for.
Either way, the slap didn’t land softly, especially to compatriots eager to defend the nation’s honour.
