I’m Filing for my Nigerian Citizenship – Rapper, Cardi B

Perhaps the biggest female rapper in the U.S. and the world, Cardi B, expressed her desire to acquire Nigerian citizenship and move to Nigeria. In fact, it was more than a desire. It was a pledge she made in the same year that she wore a dress patterned after the Nigerian flag.

She joins other U.S. rappers, such as Roddy Ricch, Lil Durk, and Wale, who have a Nigerian dream.

I want not just African Americans but also people of African descent all over the world to come to Nigeria. If America, Europe, Asia or the Middle East is not suitable for you, due to recent political, social, and economic events, please come to Nigeria.

Look at Chidinma Adetshina. South Africa was not good to her and for her. And she came to Nigeria, and Nigeria gave her the chance that South Africa wouldn’t.

That is what Nigeria does to you. It elevates you.

Many artistes were struggling and unknown in America and could not make it. That is until they returned to Nigeria, where Nigeria gave them the magic touch that transformed them into global superstars.

There is a reason why the richest Black person on Earth is a Nigerian. And that is because our economy is thriving. Last year, Aliko Dangote was worth $11.1 billion.
