It's unacceptable for the first black president of a highly respected country like the USA will bypass Nigeria, the most populated black nation in the world and West Africa's giant, largest contributor to peace keeping in West Africa and the largest market in this region, and go ahead in his first African visit, to Ghaana.
It's all news now and everyone is talking about it. Obama snubbed Nigeria and Nigerians won't forget this. When Obama was campaigning for the election, Nigerians across the world were supporting it one way or the other, even in the US, but this does not show a good future in relations between Nigeria and the US, there will always be that second place mentality between America's relation to Ghana or Nigeria and Nigeria doesn't like second place.
Obama should tender an apology for this.

Obama could not have visited all other african countries but he needed to set a good example by visiting ghana. He may visit nigeria later on
