Nigeria Re-Brands To Shed Chaotic Image 3
Nigerian President Umaru Yar'Adua is hoping a new patriotic slogan emblazoned on T-shirts and baseball caps can restore self-confidence and overturn its battered reputation. "Nigeria: Good People, Great Nation," is the new slogan. "At international airports, in trains, in shopping malls, and almost everywhere, every Nigerian is a marked person," Dora Akunyili, information minister and self-styled chief image maker said at the launch of the re-branding campaign this week. Considering what's going on around them they could have also chose, "Nigeria: We won't force you to eat your family" or "Nigeria: No, we're not the place with all the genocide."

I know the first thing I think of when I hear nigeria is "phish". Not genocide or anything else. Which is funny I think, not sure why nigeria was such a popular phishing site awhile ago, maybe their bank structure etc and lack of policing locally made it safer for them? Nowadays when I do see the random phish it's from a random location - I think their rep has gotten so bad that way that even the suckers realize random email from nigeria is a phish.
