“I was raised by a single mother. So, I feel more comfortable around ladies than guys.” According to Senegalese-American musician Akon, Nigerians are possibly the “smartest people” on earth.
The ‘Oh Africa’ singer made the claim while participating in the Drink Champs podcast, which N.O.R.E and DJ EFN co-host.
He asserted that Nigeria produces more billionaires than any other country in the world.
Akon acknowledged that a few “bad apples” are damaging the country’s reputation, though.
It’s possible to argue that Nigerians are the world’s smartest people, he remarked. Nobody is wiser than a Nigerian, I can assure you. Of course, there were a few rotten apples in the bunch. The bad apples are quite intelligent. However, they misapplied their intellect throughout.
“I was raised by a single mother. So, I feel more comfortable around ladies than guys.”
If they focused that on something more uplifting or useful, Nigeria produces more billionaires than any other country in the world thanks to those that succeeded.
