You have to give it to the West; these guys are very liberal. We often accuse the White man of being a racist forgetting that we are killing ourselves with tribalism here. If the black man had the opportunity white man had, the white man would still be in slavery today. Nigeria and Africans need to love one another. Loving oneself starts with seeing your fellow countrymen as humans first before their tribe. God bless America! 2 Likes |
