US Senator Ted Cruz apologizes for offensive remark about Nigerians

On Monday Oct. 21st, US Republican Senator Ted Cruz told a rally that Nigerian email scammers have been hired to run the Obamacare website, a comment that a lot of Nigerians found offensive. After being bombarded with several phone calls from Nigerians in Houston and all across the US, the office of Ted Cruz has issued a statement from the Senator apologizing for what he said.
 
The full statement reads:
 
It’s unfortunate that we’re living in a time where just about every joke can be misconstrued to cause offense to someone.
To the good people of Nigeria - a beautiful nation where my wife lived briefly as the child of missionaries - no offense was intended.
I am fully appreciative of the range of mutual economic and security interests that make Nigeria an important friend to the United States.
And even to those few unscrupulous email scammers who were the subject of the joke, I apologize to you for the unfair comparison to the utterly dysfunctional Obamacare website.

For me he didn't owe Nigeria an apology, he didn't say anything out of turn. But like he said, the world has become too sensitive.

this is a rediculous apology.this apology is anoying the did has been done nigeria should sue the idiot its people like him that is making america laughing stock all over the wold.i only blame few lazy nigerians queing at their embassy for nonsense visa. the recent report according to CNBC presentation showed that many nigerian families irrespective of bad leaders are living on above one dollars a day while a lot of amaricans are on handout. idots

Anonymous said...

As far as am concerned, this is no apology. He ridiculed Nigeria and Nigerians in person, he should apologize in person too. Besides, what does he mean by his joke being misconstrued? Out of all the Nations in the world it had to be Nigeria and Nigerians as the butt of his joke? And when he talks about referring to the scammers, is it only Nigeria that have scammers? He is a cheap bloody racist that needs to apologize PROPERLY to Nigeria and Nigerians, and work on a more intelligent means of "dissing" (like he was trying too hard to do, though I wonder whenever did electoral campaigns tolerate dissing) his opponent! Angry Naija.

I can categorically tell you that we Nigerians in the States DO NOT accept that tongue in cheek statement because your said statement was not posted on his website and wasn't undersigned by him and until we get a proper apology with all criteria fulfilled we won't stop.

He is just trying to keep in the news and this his useless apology should not be accepted. Rubbish! "Port Harcourt Girl."

LOL this wasn't really an apology, particularly the first and last paragraphs, but at least he's not pretending he's sorry. His wife living in Nigeria has nothing to do with it. He didn't say how she felt about Nigeria. An American could have lived in Iraq as a child and used that as an excuse to say they mean no offence when they say something offensive about Iraq. See his coconut head, he even looks cheeky.

Only wise people would note how this useless apology is filled with sarcasm. Please Nigerians, try and visit yahoo homepage daily to see how these idiots insult us on every topic about Nigeria.
