[quote author=LZAA post=69350900][/quote] Regardless of your acknowledgement of reality, reality remains unchangeable. Nobel prize no be beans. I felt Chinua Achebe not winning the Nobel prize was daylight robbery but nevertheless being a Nobel laurate in literature is not small achievements.

I know Chinua Achebe's works are better that's why I said it was daylight robbery to deny Achebe the Nobel medal. Nevertheless Achebe and Soyinka both deserve the Nobel medal.

Please we don't want you in Africa. Not especially Nigeria. You didn't do anything for black people, you were too scared to be seen as on their side and/or too busy pleasing white people to care. George Bush did more for Africa (AGOA, PEPFAR) than Obama.

To further make his case worse, oga Trump has abolished virtually all his legacy policies (Obamacare, Gay rights, etc).

Even Kenya, your sperm's origin has rejected you. Be gone oh ye son of...

Ya'll don't know what the fúck you're talking about. He said he would visit Nigeria on the condition that Goodluck would ensure electricity for the whole country. That obviously didn't happen and Obama didn't come. Trump has never been here and called Nigeria a shîthole. But go ahead and waste your time being angry with Obama when it's 2018 and we still don't have steady light.

Trump NEVER called Nigeria a 'shithole', you lying dickhead. He referred to 'African countries in general' by that term in a private cabinet meeting.

He didn't say African countries were shithole either. The story emanated from the NYT citing an anonymous source but everyone who was present at the meeting where he was ALLEGED to have said it have come out to say he never said it, trump himself has also denied it. That leaves us with one question, who was the anonymous source of the NYT? They haven't been able to name anyone till now and they haven't been able to corroborate the story from any legitimate source so there you have it, all real and identifiable people who attended that meeting say Trump never said anything like that. On the other hand, you have the fake news NYT citing an anonymous person who they have refused to identify making unverifiable claims. It's clear trump never said anything like that, it was just another attempt by the failing NYT to spread fake news and they failed. So you can see that you're the big mumu here for swallowing everything you hear without trying to verify it and you should be the one to shut the hell up!!!
