Dear Phil,

Many thanks for your article which if only written words would change attitudes in Nigeria would have done so but infortunately we also need crude force to change us. I was not surprised that it is only our women who protested your article because they are the guilty ones by far in this infamy. Even among the highest elites in Nigeria the same attitude obtains. When Minister Fani-Kayode said that he would protest the uncivli treamtent of Nigerian travellers by foreign airlines, I laughed all the way and wished him well in his neonationalist tendencies, afterall he is a chip off Fanipower.
Let us, especially the elites and the women in particular learn to be a bit serious and learn to display the victorian sentiment of noblesse oblige and decorum at internationally recognised spaces such as airports etc.
I know that you were very conservative in your write up, if not I would have liked to bore you with the story of the Nigerian who overfed with amala and guiness b4 boarding an international flight as well as the reasons why we shall never have a Nigeria Airways.
