    Default Nigeria seeks to ban District 9

    ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — One of the summer's biggest blockbusters — a sci-fi morality tale about aliens and apartheid — is not welcome in Nigeria because of its portrayal of Nigerians as gangsters and cannibals, Nigeria's information minister said Saturday.

    Information Minister Dora Akunyili has asked movie houses in the capital of Abuja to stop screening "District 9" because the South Africa-based sci-fi movie about aliens and discrimination makes Nigerians look bad.

    "We have directed that they should stop public screening of the film," she said. "We are not happy about it because it portrays Nigeria in bad light."
