Joe Biden has shown his preference for yoruba-americans. That's why he specifically asked that American girl he called on the phone what part of Nigeria she's from grin

Not been Yoruba is a disadvantage for Okonjo iwela. Especially as the gully erosion ravaged iboe land showed their support for Trump and disdain for Biden/Obama.


Now Obama hasn't forgotten that Okonjo iwela was part and parcel of the destructive and corruption ridden govt of GEJ. If Biden will support her, he would have indicated so long before now like he did on many other issues like climate change, WHO etc. I think Biden agrees with Trump on this one. Iwela is on her own .[/s]

See this afonja that fulani is currently killing and raping your mothers, grandmothers and sisters in your own backyard. You can't go and face them, na Ibo people dey give u orgasm every time. Mark it, before the end of this year, Ogun state and Oyo state will be a fulani caliphate. E go shock you.

Is Ngozi an American woman?
according to the article she became an American citizen in 2019. I think her claiming American citizenship rather than claiming to be a Nigerian or a Nigerian American will boost her chances of nailing the WTO job.

NOI faces a big hurdle to get the job not because of any tribal considerations ( all that is in your head). Her biggest problem is she was finance minister in what the Americans considered a corrupt regime that was shunned by the Obama regime of which Biden was VP. Biden is basically the second coming of Obama and Obama was not friendly towards the GEJ administration of which NOI was a key player.

Is it a prerequisite that one must become an American citizen to become the DG of the WTO?


After haven been nominated by a Nigerian president, she became an American citizen overnight? Is there something I'm not getting?



It was the late reggae superstar Peter Tosh who once sang -


" No matter where you come from as long as you are a Blackman (or woman as the case may be) you are an African".


Becoming an American citizen cannot change the colour of one's skin.


Her becoming an American citizen smacks of desperation and a betrayal of her Nigerian root.

Because we don't like ourselves? What kind of sentimental nonsensical victimhood is this?


Did Nigeria not support her?

Not just support

NIGERIA NOMINATED HER
Why always playing victim?
Anthony Joshua fights a a Briton because he grew up there and never entered a boxing gym in Nigeria
what has Nigeria brought to the table in terms of Trade to the world. Let me tell u. Trump kicked against her because of the pressure china will put on her. When China was a developing nation it was granted some incentives by developed nations as we know,it made it easy for them to trade without stress and now,China still claims they are a developing nation in which,as we all know they are now a developed nations. Thereby not encouraging other nations to grow in trade due to their monopoly. Anthony Joshua also grew up in Nigeria,wen he was overlooked because of our no man system. He returned to Britain in which we are celebrating our own in another man's land. We had Emeagwali that was too notch in maths but were is he now,he proudly tells everyone he is an American,so fella deal with it.

Why wouldn't she be ashamed of white supremacists in Nigeria?
Imagine BLACK white supremacists!!!!!!!!!!
Does it make any sense
I am also not happy with such madness among Africans.

Please do not let some people from across the Niger hear this from you.

Donald Trump is their god so please trade with care.

They so dislike their daughter (Ngozi) simply because Trump chose not to support her.

Have you ever come across any one of them lambasting Trump for not supporting their daughter?

No! She's Nigeria's nominee, she got the backing of PMB. We've seen all the process from the start to finish, she even asked PMB for serious support through Nigeria's envoys and he sent letters asking for the support of world leaders. After all she came to State house and thank him for his support. All this saying first American woman is a formality of getting Biden nod.

she is also seriously backed by the Chinese. Nigeria has no say in world matters oh. That's why if u follow up international press report about her,they always put her citizenship of US to really give her a strong support. Buhari got nothing to do

She's a candidate nominated by Nigeria Government and so she's a Nigerian as far as WTO is concerned, however her dual citizenship of America would help her a great deal.

So you see, she needed to become an American citizen first.

What does this mean to you?

Anyways she is qualified American or Nigerian.

May she emerge as the WTO DG in Jesus name (Amen)

Those 44 men didn’t have a black vice. If they tried, they wouldn’t win.
Making a black woman a running mate propelled Biden to Victory. If not, Trump would have won.

What are you even talking about?

All that black this and that being first time should have happened long ago if racism was not involved. Many backs were qualified but weren’t considered.

Just admit you’re a Republican!!
lmao. You think Harris propelled Biden to victory? Someone that was polling at 0 during the primary and dropped out before her home state of California even voted? Someone that most blacks don’t even like? Biden was always going to win the black vote regardless because blacks always almost uniformly vote for the democrat candidate. Bidens real first choice was Amy Klobuchar but he picked Harris because of intersectional pressure he was getting from the democrat party leadership to pick a woman of color, Any woman of color, and Harris was the most high profile of them all. Even then he was leaning towards Susan Rice but her Benghazi scandal during the Obama administration made her seem like a liability. Bro most rank and file democrat voters don’t like Harris. They think she’s a phony and neoliberal. Read for yourself

Do you know how to read and comprehend English at all? I doubt very strongly because if you know how to read, you won't vomit this nonsense you just wrote.
tell your illiterate mother to come and teach me how to read and comprehend na. Omo ale. What did I say there that is not consistent with what’s written in the article??Why do they always feel the need to mention the race or gender of anyone they are considering for a job? Why not just mention the persons credentials and vet them based on that alone? If the woman is the most qualified for the job then she should get it, if not it should go to the person who is. It’s as simple as that mad man.
