June 14, 07:48Oh come on, the Ghanaian dude is hot too.
And me, I don’t know about the Naija pikin o. Yea, you’re right tho. He is very good looking.
Deola
June 14, 07:48The Ghanaian guy is cute, there is something about Emmanuel that has always been a turn off for me, I can’t place my fingers on it.
The South African is aiit and I like that the guy from Swaziland has that ‘every day’ look. He is just the right amount of cute and fit.
If I were to choose one I would pick the guy form Swaziland.
Its Mr. World and I am guessing its not all about the looks.

June 14, 09:03I have always theorized that West African men, led by Nigerian men are the hottest in Africa, as we can all see here, the Nigerian is by far the hottest followed by the Ghanaian, the South African is ok, I wouldn’t fuck him though, and …. is that the best that the Swazis could throw up????? Smh … biko he’s just so regular- close to being plainfaced actually, just taking a walk through my neighbourhood on any evening, I could easily pick 5 hotter guys ….
