The security guard on duty simply told him to make a u-turn because Nigerian were not accepted into the building.

Anothe rperson blamed the government for what she describes as audacity of the Chinese, “Imagine the audacity of these Ch!nese people, in our country again they are still discriminating against us. I don’t blame them, it’s our government that fa!led us and gave this people too much power. This is really embarrassing and sad.”

The Punch Newspaper reported that an investigations carried out confirmed that the Royal Choice supermarket was not welcoming any Nigerian or anyone of black color.
