Melinda Gates is wife to the richest man in the world, Bill Gates. She was pictured yesterday washing plates in a village in Malawi.

According to Forbes magazine’s annual list of the world’s billionaires, Bill Gates’ net worth is $76 billion and the billionaire’s spouse Melinda, who describes herself as a “philanthropist, businesswoman, mother, passionate advocate for women and girls,” shared these photos of herself on her IG page. .

Melinda has been described as one of the world’s famous social activist “who is trying to serve the people in ignorance.” She's pictured with a 20-litre bucket of water on her head alongside two other Malawian women, walking on a dirt road, after the cut

Infact, kudos to you. You made an apt observation.

You are not the one who will call yourself humble. It is for others to see and comment.


But some of these whites could be very amazing people. While there are some bad asss racists, there are still some with heart of gold. We have to learn humility from these people.

My friend, Africa will only be great if Africans get their acts together not because some foreign do-gooder visits. I have visited 9ja with Western friends for 25 years. They didn't stop IBB cancelling June 12 or Abacha. Great African kingdoms were made by Africans.

Nice post. A lot of folks don't know these pictures are just PR material for a larger ponzi scheme. Once you know the history of the Gates' family, especially Bill Gates' dad, you won't trust these folks. What they're doing under the "charity" banner is similar to what Western countries do with foreign aid, albeit theirs is basically about using experimental vaccines as the cover - while the government of these countries will end up paying extras for the real vaccines on the long run, at exorbitant prices, to pharmaceutical companies the Gates family have a huge financial interest in. Ever wondered why even after ceding the majority stakes in Microsoft to Steve Ballmer and the billions he gives out in charitable causes, he's still the richest man in the world - with billions of dollars increment in his net-worth annually. He also has interest in the huge water reservoir in Africa - and that's where the money will be in the future.

It's similar to what Akon is doing at the moment with "lighting up Africa", albeit Akon is direct with his own. He's bringing out the services and know-how, while the governments in different countries in Africa would be the one to pay for the infrastructures and the services he's rendering. Smart business move and win win for all sides involved. The only difference is that he isn't pretending to be doing it for free like Bill Gates.

Africa has enormous untapped potentials and that's what everyone cares about. However, the funniest thing is that: the people who ought to claim these potentials can't really see them...only the few elites, their kids, and foreigners are the ones benefiting from them. For Africa to be great, everyone has to be carried along, and there has to be an awakening, which is non-existent right now. Currently, I'm networking with a few friends out here, with folks in naij, and you need to see the type of figures (money) folks throw around for things you can just do for free. Also, a lot of basic things are lacking and if you can go in there with the right connect/networking and resources for a start-up - you'll make loads of money. That's what all the folks screaming Africa care about - not how to move Africa to the next level. It's just a pity that folks out there can't really see these things and the rough diamonds they're sitting on.

You should be ashamed of yourself for this display of ignorance publicly. This woman and her husband support the developing countries in mainly Africa and Asia with more than $100b every single year and still take time to visit as many of them as possible to have a real feel of what they are going through, yet you sit here and type rubbish.

People like you cannot even help their siblings talk less of people they do not know o.

Our politicians take our money to foreign countries, leaving the country to ruins. Bill gates and other like him are bringing their money to Africa, to help Africans.
I feel shame and sadness knowing that black people are indeed their own worst enemy...

I pray and wish that God gives me enough wealth so I can reach out to people in need.

Now that you pink god are fetching water, trying and begging the ORIGINAL PEOPLE, THE ONE GOD to accept their sacrifices, they are good to humanity. You are a mumu.
