Celebrity
Fox News anchor, Harris Faulkner, has apologized to Nigeria after stating on
the American news giant that Nigeria was "right next to Mali" during
her reportage of the Mali Hostage crisis during which at least 27 people died.
Miss
Faulkner had made the claim live but was challenged by Nigerian born US TV
host, Reno Omokri who told her she had "misinformed" Americans and
negatively portrayed Nigeria.
The
news anchor later fessed up in a tweet admitting that she was in error but
maintaining that Nigeria and Mali were in the same area to which an American
responded by saying "You're wrong Harris Nigeria is sub-Saharan/West
African while Mali is in the Sahel region".
