Nigerians Blast Ginuwine for Accusing Nigerians of Defrauding People Using His Identity

A media controversy is currently trailing popular American singer as Nigerians has taken over his page's comment section to blast him over his controversial comment on Nigerians as fraudsters

American singer, dancer and actor, Elgin Baylor Lumpkin, better known by his stage name as Ginuwine, has leveled a fresh case of fraud on the shoulders of a Nigerians.

The 'Love You More' crooner, yesterday took to his Instagram and warned his over 300,000 followers, saying he had just learnt that someone was using his photo to trick people into giving money on Facebook, and he described the criminal act as a 'Nigerian scam'.

"I’m being told someone is using my name to trick people into giving money THIS IS NOT ME!!!! It’s a Nigerian scam going on so if anyone on any page that has my name ask for money curse they ass out people will do anything for a dollar it’s crazy," he wrote

As expected, his statement offended Nigerians, and they are dragging him for filth, but some of his fans claim that the singer never meant that the scam was being masterminded by a Nigerian, only that he described same as a scam Nigerians are famous for. 

Either way, the slap didn’t land softly, especially to compatriots eager to defend the nation’s honour.
