Stop making enemies, move on madam

Making “enemies” of Trumpists is very good thing.
Moreover, one cannot build global consensus without repudiation Trump’s nationalist demagoguery.

Nope, apples and oranges...

First, Obama did NOT do the “same thing” to Okonjo-Iweala because the Obama administration did not specifically and publicly OPPOSE her candidacy for the World Bank presidency. Rather, the US had its own (US official) candidate contesting for the position, who ended up winning (same as every WB president since the bank’s formation). In contrast, under Trump, not only did the US not have a candidate for the WTO position but the other 163 members had agreed upon NOI as the consensus candidate, until America’s first openly racist president (aka the Orange Insurrectionist) specifically and officially OPPOSED her candidacy. What a douchebag!

no difference Obama supported Jim Yong Kim a Korean... Trump also supported a Korean.... The question m asking is was Obama racist?

She was being interviewed. She must have been asked a question regarding Trump’s interference in her quest. You are just jumping into a hurried conclusion by saying she is bragging.

Saying she can’t go far is rather hateful of you to say.

Flat-heads confused about who to support on this issue.

"Should we back our recently crest-fallen American hero, Donald Donatus Okechukwu Trump?"

"Should we blast Dona and back our Ogwashi-ukwu sister even though she's not completely Igbo, as she's not from any of our 5 SE states?"

Wahala be like Dangote towel ...



You no get sense...So you still credit a woman you married to her family!
She is Igbo...She is from the South-East. Although formally born to a Deltan Parents, she is married to Abia State Man.
So back off nepotist and tribalistic entity!

Do you know if she was asked? Why do some people hate hearing the truth? Was it not public knowledge that trump blocked her candidature?

Nigerians...very egotistic......

My former Zimbabwean MD once said, I don't care what you come to the office with, just deliver on the job and give me results. I believe it worked for him. Suits don't do the job, the man (or woman) does the job. It may be true that a policy requires that if you have to attend a meeting (on behalf of your organization) you should be dressed in a particular manner, but until there is such a policy, any decent clothing will almost always serve the purpose. While at it, who said it must be suits, why don't the western world wear our style. Always allowing them to feel superior even in spheres where they are not.

That's no rant, she granted an interview and express her opinion. And as for going far, then you definitely don't know this woman, she will surely make a difference

during the 2012 race okonjo and Jim Yong Kim were main key runners America supported Jim because he had dual citizenship .... In d 2020 race the same scenario played out d only difference now was that okonjo got a US citizenship in the middle of the race.. Trump got a backlash that he did not support an American citizen and BLM and Biden capitalized on it.

it is the same thing. As long as USA don't support you for world Bank top post you can't get it even if all the 200 other nations are Supporting. You cleverly stated here that Obama has his candidate. Trump also has his candidate. What you are now saying that doesn't make sense is that because other 163 member Nations are supporting iweala then trump must abadon his candidate. How does that sound? To both trump and Obama, okonjo wasn't good enough. It has nothing to do with racism. Infact, the candidate of Obama was a surprise. He was practically hand picked by Obama in spite of other nations
