chopnaira:This is long overdue! A lot of USAID funds end up in the wrong hands, sometimes even supporting enemies of the U.S. and war criminals. Shutting it down means a fresh start for a more transparent and effective aid program—one that actually helps those in need. If aid is truly necessary, a better system can be created to ensure funds go where they’re supposed to, not wasted on corruption and bad actors. |

imagine Dangote setting up an office in aso rock trump is demystifying oyibos and showing us that oyibo leader of 'saner climes' can be just as corrupt, clueless and misinformed as leader of third world backwaters |

omoredia:Actually ,I like China more than USA and I believe a lot of wise Nigerians share the same sentiment because China is more peaceful and share technology with other countries unlike US that cause chaos everywhere and wants to gatekeep technology. The only debacle to Nigeria relationship with China is distance and language barrier. |

omoredia:It's an insult to America to compare them with Saudi Arabia. America is the world's power |

Xisnin:You’ll rather do giveaway to strangers than take care of your own household when push comes to shove. With scarce resources and the need to spend inwardly on the the economy, isn’t it eccentric to indulge in charity in the name of international influence or foreign policy? Given nothing goes for free, have they been doing USAID for free without influencing weaker governments’ decisions and sovereignty? Trump is just here simply being a devil you know. The angel you don’t know is even more dangerous. |

Xisnin:It's a front for a lot of bad things though. It's like how yahoobois have a legal business, but behind the scene, their real money is from scam. USAID is the same. They use it to fund coup, disinformation, distabilize third-world government and countries, to fund terrorist like Boko. So many things. But you can only see the front side, which is donation to charity. But it's just a front. |

Gworo-teeth swine crying their balls out. They have been the sole beneficiary of the USAID loot. Let them beckon on their wealthy brother to sponsor them with proceeds from the yearly pilgrimage. |

If a rich man suddenly stops donating rice to the villagers, giving money to churches, funding projects for the indigents etc, do you actually think he will still be respected in that community? Your guess is as good as mine |

I strongly perceive that the rest of the world will pose strong resistance to the US economic embargo and aid withdrawal. More nations will dump the dollars and focus more on themselves. We will see how all these things play out soon. The new world order is about to set in. |

Be relevant in life. Be determined, be creative in whatever you do, and don't let your location be a barrier to your growth and progress. Elon musk was born in South Africa, a South Africa national but due to those brilliancy points noted. He's sitting today with the most powerful man in the world, dinning with powers in a foreign country, inputting ideas that could impact on the Constitution of the greatest country in the world. He's doing what no naturalized American citizen has ever done in the corridor of America seat of power. He access Oval office freely without hindrance and discuss with the enigma Trump easily. Keep your ace up and be consistent at your progress. Soon, you shall sit with kings and queens of foreign lands. |

USAID paid $600m for anti-Russian media & $98m for Venezuela’s Guaido — in just 1 year To overthrow Maduro & open up Venezuela's oil reserves, USAID agreed to pay Guaido $98m A budget of 598m for 2020 alone, went to anti-Russian 'free media'

oxygenlove:❗️Elon Musk accuses USAID of funding Chinese lab where US claims coronavirus came from ⚡️Musk claimed that USAID used Americans' tax dollars to fund bioweapons research, including COVID-19. ⚡️The agency has been linked to intelligence activities and coups in Haiti, Ukraine, Egypt, and is "infiltrated by CIA agents," according to a former USAID director. ⚡️Musk called USAID a "viper's nest of left-wing radicals" and added: "It needs to die." |

Mathewrichard99:He was born into one of the richest familes in Africa and became a government contractor in the USA from where 90 per cent of his wealth came. Nothing like exceptional creativity or briliance. PS: You need to brush up your written English. It's horrid. |

Let the truth be told. Most of these aids money ends up in the pockets of the politicians in the developing countries. Some of these developing countries have the capacity to develop itself. Countries like DRC, Nigeria and so many have no reason to ask for aids. Politicians and top government officials steal their countries dry and even steal part of the aids. Everybody should manage what they have ![]() |

Africans don't need aids, the terrorist kidnaping governments in Gaza and Lebanon through their proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah do not need Americans money. It's high time we stop this cosmetic politics. |
