This is taking the piss.

Pls, someone gimme Sony head-office address in London, so we can carry out some guerilla attacks.

Joking aside, I would recommend that all Nigerian community groups in the diaspora are e-mailed this petition, and requested to picket Sony offices worldwide.

If you are offended, then maybe you haven't seen District 9(lol). But come, it was meant to be some kind of joke, but I don't get it. Are they saying there's never been a million-naira winner on that WWTBAM show? Anyway, lame. Like all gags aimed at Nigerians. It's really getting kind of old.

Sign petition to the Nigerian internet scammers first, at least they'll be the first to receive any e-mails.  grin

So you Nigerians aren't embarassed, if Sony was a Nigerian company would you have mouth to talk openly about the company talkless sign petition with your name, you see a progressive and fair (for the most part) country, and now we can talk. Chai, so embarrassing.

Sign petition for good roads in Nigeria, before being pretentious as if Nigeria's image can be tarnished anymore.  grin

lol the commericial is funny, if one thinks about it outside the Nigerian box. They are not marketing to Nigerians so sony could care less

Re: Please Sign The Petition To Make Sony To Drop Their Ps3 Ad Which Slurs Nigerians by blackspade(m): 12:50am On Sep 03, 2009
No I won't. There are many other important things we could be petitioning besides some advertisement for Sony.

We have made our own beds, it's not their fault that Nigerians are famous for 419.
Re: Please Sign The Petition To Make Sony To Drop Their Ps3 Ad Which Slurs Nigerians by nex(m): 1:23am On Sep 03, 2009
where is this petition going? The only thing Sony understands is loss of revenue. Send this thing to madam Dora. By the time Sony products including Sony Ericsson phones are banned from Nigeria for one year, they will beg.

The older version of PS3 was $500 in the USA and it was £500 in the UK when it was launched.
UK peops bear the brunt.
