USA is a country of immigrants. Even Trump's ancestors were/are immigrants.

That's why it's called the UNIT States of America, but Trump is hell bent on making it the DIVIDED States of America.

DSA- what a name...

It is not so true. Because all those people made it because they were in America where government provided all the enabling environment and infrastructures. With the persistent power outage in Nigeria tell me how such exploits could have been possible. #America is more or less responsible for their success. GOD BLESS America

True. They would not have made it if they stayed in their own country and that's one great thing about America is that, they provide such enviroment that cause big brains to migrate to their country. which of this people will look at Nigeria and want to settle there? America was able to entice great minds to come and settle in their country, if that isn't genius planning then I don't know what is.

This Trump guy needs to be schooled on the positive impacts of the immigrants to his America success story

Trump is battling illegal immigrants! That's the right thing any sensible government should do.

If you want to enter America, do the right thing! Get your papers in tact! All these examples are people that properly and legally entered the US.


People want America to become like one lawless giant of Africa who's opposition can easily import bandits from Libya to kill people at will and go Scot free! Rubbish!

The citizens are already doing a great job at this

America my home

neweraomo:
No Nigerian what about them developers?

I was expecting Philip Emegwuali's name. Maybe he migrated legally to USA not illegally.

I think you should get yourself informed first before you start misinforming the public.

1. Trump is not against imigration - his own wife WAS a first generatuin immigrant, then a citizen and finalky the FLOTUS.

2. Trump wants a stop on ILLEGAL and uncontrolled immigration that HURSTS his country and its citezens - JUST LIKE EVERY SANE COUNTRY DOES. In fact, Nigeria recently deported the MD of a popular multinational company who was accused of illegal stay in Nigeria.

3. Go and find out the diffrence between ILLEGAL and LEGAL before you start talking crap in public.

4. EVERY SINGLE PERSON you listed in that your crapy list is an American citezen WHO WOULD MOST LIKELY NOT HAVE BEEN KNOWN BY ANYONE IF NOT FOR THE AMERICAN SYSTEM. Get your facts straight.

5. Jobs was born in the US to a single WHITE mother (with whom he had no affinity due to early adoption) and was brought up in the US by WHITE extremely loving foster parents.

6. You don't even know the diffrence betwen migration and citizenship, yet you are here talking nonsense.

7. Musk schooled in the US. He's a citizen. And he's NOT mad at Trump. In fact he just said a few days ago that the US remains the best country ever on this planet.

So quit your liberal disinformation addiction and #WalkAway for your own sanity.

As president Trump of the United States of America continues his onslaught against immigrants, rolling out tough policies all in a bid to discourage hard working immigrants from entering the country it’s important for him to be reminded that almost all the biggest and richest tech companies in America were founded by immigrants. He should however think of how it would have been if previous presidents had stopped the parents of this founders from entering the United States. It is worthy to note that most of these people came into the United States as poor people but today, they and their children helped built the US to what it become today. I have compiled a list of all the major tech companies whose founders are not originally from the United States but were immigrants from other countries. These companies would not have existed in the United States without immigrants. These founders have called on the US to keep it’s doors wide open to immigrants. Maybe Trump should see this list and have a rethink.


1. Amazon : Founder Jeff Bezos whose father Mike Bezos was a Cuban immigrant. Today he’s the world’s richest man.

I like Elon Musk for his daring dreams with SpaceX.

@ the topic, if you take away these companies from the US tech industry, I swear the Silicon Valley will just crumble

Take it or leave, it may take another century for another country to topple the United States as the world's power

I've hearing that China is an emerging power since year 2000

To date, nothing nothing

Why the United States will always stay on top of their game is that it's a part place to make everyone's dreams to come true

Typical Nigerian displaying ignorance and spewing rubbish. Families with little kids coming to the United states seeking asylum are not illegal immigrants, they might have gone through the wrong channel but they've declared their intention of seeking asylum. The laws says they have a right to due process in seeking asylum!

Guys look at the demographic of the featured people. Did you see any black man or drug dealing Mexican? Trump just doesn't want folks from shit hole countries. He want folks from progressive countries not killing field , shit hole , God forsaken , corrupt, uncultured, genocidal cesspit countries like Nigeria. He just doesn't want you guys.

Absolutely, there is no doubt that 1st, generation Americans along with US citizens born outside of the USA have made an indelible & great achievement in Tech, Academia, Finance, Big Pharma and Government but we cannot forget the fact that they were able to accomplish their respective feats is due to the American exceptional platform that offered quality education, quality knowledge bank, exposure to intellectual activities, venture capitalist funds and most important American innovative & entrepreneur culture. We can both bet that had Steve Jobs Dad stayed in Syria, the iPhone would have a different name and might not be as powerful as the one we have. Sergey Brin’s Dad was poor in the Soviet Union and came to America to be a Mathematics Professor. The greatness of America is not due to a particular race or culture but the concept of the individual freedom and pursuit of success and that’s why other nations fail. Had African Americans been afforded economic, social and civil right since the Reconstruction Era, America would have even been greater.

trump all d way. immigrants from middle east should go to Qatar, uae, Saudi etc dia expertise is needed more dia.

Trump has been generalizing. There are loads of children of Mexicans that became great. Go to California and see 1st gen Mexican-American doing great things, but to generalize and call all of them criminals is distasteful. The current Attorney General of California, Xavier Becerra is a child of poor Mexican immigrants and there are thousands of Xavier in the US.

Capital fool! What do you know other than to insult strangers you don't know.

Asylum seeking has become an excuse for every Tom, Dick and Harry to take advantage of America, Europe and all countries workng hard to build civilised society.

Why aren't they seeking asylum in African, Latin American and Asian countries??

The sickening thing is to even get children involved so they can blackmail a country "with counciens" to pity them. Nonsense!!!

America & European countries owe you nothing. Face your useless and clueless leaders! Die if need be! People died to make America great! MLK, MalcomX, etc. They didn't go to seek asylum elsewhere. (una dey find ready made food! Ode!)

Stop blackmailing White people! To help is not by force! Monkey
