Angela Simmons in Nigeria!, are we spending wisely?






Angela Simmons arrived in Lagos yesterday to host the Music Meets Runway show that will be taking place tomorrow at Eko Hotel in Victoria Island.

Kim Kardashian was allegedly paid millions of dollars recently when she came to Nigeria to attend Darey's 'Love Like a Movie' concert and even then, it was reported that her appearance only lasted for about a few seconds. Was it really worth it?

Similarly, Angela Simmons coming to Nigeria has received a lot of negative criticism and backlash because many people seem to think its an absolute waste of funds and a clear case of misplaced priorities. She would probably be paid millions (in dollars of course) and then return to her country soon after that.

So, I'm going to throw this out there, in a country where over 70% of the population live below the poverty line of $1 a day (ridiculous right?) and where basic things like electricity and good roads are not quite 'basic', should this really be our priority and focus right now? bringing reality TV stars to host/sit down at our home shows and thereafter compensating them with s**t loads of millions? Seriously, I don't even know how to feel about this...

Anyway, on a lighter note, Angela Simmons has got lovely skin...
