Why Has Trump Not Spoken To Any African Leader? - Wall Street Journal by Nobody: 7:16am On Nov 18, 2016 |
According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump has shown that Africa is zero on his agenda as President. While many African leaders have praised his election including President Mohammadu Buhari, President-elect Trump has only spoken to the Egyptian leader among 29 other world leaders, considered very important and high profile. We need to rethink and remake ourselves as African, if we continue on this path, no one will ever take us serious or recognize our importance at the world stage. Here is a list of all the world leader Trump has spoken to. Here’s the full list of the leaders Mr. Trump and Mr. Pence have spoken to: President of Argentina, Mauricio Macri Prime Minister of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau President of China, Xi Jinping President of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos Calderón President of Egypt, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi Prime Minister of Denmark, Lars Løkke Rasmussen Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel President of France, François Hollande Prime Minister of Ireland, Enda Kenny Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu Prime Minister of Italy, Matteo Renzi Prime Minister of Japan, Shinzō Abe King Abdullah II bin Al Hussein of Jordan Prime Minister of Lebanon, Saad Al Hariri President of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto Prime Minister of New Zealand, John Key His Highness Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani of Qatar Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi President of Korea, Park Geun-hye President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan President of the Russia, Vladimir Putin King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia Prime Minister of Turkey, Binali Yildirim President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko President of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Abu Dhabi, H.H.

Lolz... he doesn't subscribe to yellow journalism of a part of country that held us sway... As for our Man of Integrity, he really does not portray an international image coz of questionable integrity. According to Barbara Walters, "Donald don't get into the mud with pigs" (Trump and Bill Zanker...THINK BIG page 188) TRUST is far from African Leaders... Trust is Trump!!! |

is Egypt in Europe? why so much hype and expectations from people outside the continent, they will not come and develop Africa for us. Its high time we began to look inward and see how we can move our continent forward. #Inferiority complex! |

Egyptians don't exactly see themselves as Africans anyway. But beyond that, why do you expect serious nations to take Africans seriously with are seat-tight leaders practicing their own styled democracy that enables them perpetuate themselves in power for life. Or is it their highly corrupt nature not restricted to them but also to their spouses and children. Or is it their hypocrisy as regards rights of citizens to enjoy freedom of speech and association etc. Or is it their inability to develop their countries and provide the basic needs of their citizens despite their enormous wealth and resources. Do we even take ourselves seriously when we go about killing and maiming human beings like we are in some jungle...and u expect sane people to take us seriously. Abeg leave matter...we deserve what we get. |
