If Gej was the President he would have called him but who takes buhari serious

probably because we r d least productive race....

Part 1.....Afonjas take heart

Egypt is Africa, goes to show u which countries in Africa are regarded as important.
By the way Egypt is a strategic ally of the. US.

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!!!

His choice.

Bujumbura:
If Gej was the President he would have called him but who takes buhari serious

Wicked

Why do you even expect him to call Buhari?

and is Egypt not in Africa ?

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!

So on smoothfm today, About president Buhari and the everyday "corruption" talk, a listener said...

" corruption this, corruption that, fix the economy, this is what you get when you make the Efcc chairman the president of a country"

So because an alleged rapist, woman grouper - sex offender, a racist serial liar and thief did not call other Nigeria and other major African leaders we should begin to cry that we are not being taken seriously....

Bros park well and check yourself

"Why has Trump not spoken with any African leader?". "Trump only spoke with Egyptian leader". OP, to knock you for tongue just the hungry me.

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.
