Senegalese-American singer, Akon, has said Nigerians are arguably the “smartest people” in the world.
The ‘Oh Africa’ crooner asserted while featuring on the Drink Champs podcast co-hosted by N.O.R.E and DJ EFN.
He claimed that more billionaires are being made in Nigeria than anywhere in the world.
Akon, however, admitted that there are a few “bad apples” tarnishing the image of the country.
He said, “This could be debatable, but the Nigerians are the smartest people on the planet. I promise you, there is nobody smarter than a Nigerian. Of course, there are a few bad apples that came out. They [the bad apples] are extremely smart. But they put their intelligence in the wrong place.
“If they were to gear that towards something more positive or productive… Because the ones that did, more billionaires are being made in Nigeria than anywhere in the world.”

The pump price of Premium Motor Spirit, popularly called petrol, was raised from N537/litre to N617/litre at some filling stations operated by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited in Abuja on Tuesday.
Independent oil marketers confirmed the increase in the cost of the commodity, as they stated that any shift in price by NNPCL stations was an indication of a rise in the pump price of PMS.
“This is because NNPCL is still the major importer of petrol into Nigeria currently, though other marketers are gradually importing the commodity. The price this (Tuesday) morning at some NNPCL stations is N617/litre,” the Secretary, Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Abuja-Suleja, Mohammed Shuaibu, told our correspondent.
