Most of the comments posted above support the last sentence of the article above: nobody cares about Africa. It is irresponsible to make fun of our brothers and sisters in West Africa.

Though only a small percentage of the population uses internet doesn't mean, that a blackout causes fewer damage as it would in a western country. Consider for instance the banking systems.

And I wonder if those, who believe that all 120 Million Nigerians are scammers believe also that all Italians are Mafiosi or all Columbians drugdealers.

Spread the news about the internet blackout instead of making unqualified comments...
