Don't kid yourself. undecided

Black man hating on another black lady.

Why do black hate each other?
They hate seeing their fellow black prospering.

You're absolutely right. The heart of a black man is evil

The speech was good. I saw through the theatrics. Nothing has changed in America for the black man. A black person will still get killed by the police and black people will protest en masse. Everyone is only happy that Donald Trump isn’t the president anymore.

It's something called Envy!... It is a rare thing to see an average African negro lacking such a terrible character flaw.

if they are as good as you claim, a snippet will announce his greatness

People are fond of hyping up average talents when the person is emotionally connected to them, burna boy's mother will never ever agree that davido is better and she isn't wrong but she is taking that stance from an emotional stand point like you grin

If na naija girls that will ask for urgent 2k for transport fare back home

This line is getting quite stale tbh... In my circle and associations, I have met quite the number of Nigerian ladies as exceptional as the young lady above, if not even better.

Enough of this obtuse generalization. Thank you.

in a few years there will be more single ladies that are successful than guys

All these ones will be chasing bread sellers and complaining that she is poor, go to most cooperate firms and ask staffers out and see how women that are comfortable behave

Every small thing girls are beggers, how many have they dated self angry

I try to be very honest when it is necessary. The boy is damn good. I can not send you a snippet of his work. Anyone here can plagiarize it. Sorry.

Just watch from now on how the Trump diehards and sadists from the East will be scouting for bad news about America to taunt Joe Biden, just to validate their evil wish for America to fail post-Trump era.

Lol.

Don't be a hypocrite. this is politics and that's what they all do. Or is that not what the Democrats did to Trump's administration?

From claiming that Trump's presidency is illegitimate, to the Russian election collusion accusation without evidence, despite both independent and government security agencies clearing him of such to countless media attacks , with the Pandemic being the bulls eye that finally stuck, and eventually used and milked to oust him.

Hello bro, I repeat they are all the same. You'll be naive to think of one party as evil and the other as saint. You only see the Democrats as saints because they align with your ideals. I repeat , they are all the same and both sides play games with the lives of innocent ordinary people everyday to further their ambitions.

Know this and know peace bro.

A message to the world from Biden. Trump exit does not mean the ideology of America first has been swept under the carpet.
