New Random Events (Funny Ones)

[Antilogic]

There is a nuclear protests event, but I'm pretty sure it applies to building nuclear power plants, not nuclear missiles. I could be mistaken though; I've never seen it in-game.

The citizens of <city> wish to join Nigeria! However, they need your bank account number so they can give Nigeria a show of faith before joining

Option 1: Give them your credit card number: -1000 gold. It turns out Nigeria never really wanted them in the first place.
Option 2: Don't give them your credit card number. -1 happiness for ten turns and barbarian city "Nigeria" spawns on the map (it's already got 10000 gold from previous scams so it's a juicy target)
Option 3: Show them the email they got on Scopes: +100 beakers to your current research and event cannot repeat itself for your civilization. However, the city in question goes through one turn of revolt as the citizens en masse take the day off work to browse through other Scopes truths and myths
