We are not surprised about it, Trump is very terrible and he is a nuisance. What do u expect? Since pple of USA voted him, I knew that his administration would be surrounded with controversies. He does not deserve all the opportunities he has, but God does what he likes. He should withdraw, when another president comes, USA will join back.

saxywale1:

Reckless is an understatement. He is dangerous. He still mentioned on 4th of July that the virus is 99% harmless, yet US has the highest number of corona related deaths in the world!

the virus has 99.5 recovery rate!! US has the highest number of deaths because democrat governors sent covid19 patients to nursing homes which resulting In more than half of the deaths.

Annie001:

Then they should throw away the tittle world super powers
Are they being recognized as that for just name sake?
It's simply because they are capable of all these things

Oga please, you take the title of world super power and we will recognize you - entitlement mentality kee u there - oh, so the US taxpayers should continue funding rubbish just to get the benefit of being called a super power while their purse is bleeding abi? and to think America is not being appreciated for anything is disgusting.

The other day some people here on nairaland were celebrating that corona virus is killing Americans and all sort of derogatory names was used to describe America - I was appalled.

How can a people be so insensitive? Oga I am an American tax payer so I have a right to tell you to hold your Buhari accountable for the way health care is run in Nigeria and other African citizens have a right hold other African leaders accountable. Ordinary Ear infection, Buhari ran away to treat it in the UK, this is the same man that campaigned against medical tourism before he was elected in 2015. When any dares to criticize that, you call him names like IPOB, wailers, and some stu pid adjectives

Ordinary protest called by Sowore (who I am not a fan of) was sabotaged by you people - the very people he wanted to redeem - and most people here were celebrating his incarceration like they won a lottery

some here were saying things like Sowore’s brain will hit a factory rest when mosquito eats him up and such post got a minimum of 200 likes - that was so disgusting.

And you think Americans don’t read comment here ? I mean Americans that have the ability and capacity to show these things to the state department? And who sees such comments about them and be so willing to continuously help those people taking cheap shots at them ?

if you can’t fix your country - and you attack fellow citizens who are attempting to fix the country in their own small way, AND you find it so convenient to demonize President Trump for defining your country for what it is- “ a sh it h o le” then PUT UP YOUR BIG BOY PANTS AND STOP TAKING AID FROM AMERICA AND BE PROUD OF YOUR CORRUPT NATION AND HER LEADERS AND LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES. America is not your father - be responsible and take charge of your future and have some shame African man!

My dear, throughout history, they has always been world power and they collapse eventually. It can be very little thing, but they eventually leave the stage for another to rise. USA will eventually collapse and another power will rise

the only avenue for any world power collapse is when they cut their defense budgets maybe for other sectors of their economy lacking. Now look at the USA, does it look like they will reduce their defense budget anytime soon. USA will remain a world power much longer than the UK was.

wirinet:

That's ironic. You are supporting someone that promotes me and my country first as being selfless, but calling someone that support helping WHO and other poor countries selfish.


USA, UK, China and most of the industrialised world does not need the help of WHO, it's poor countries like Togo, Bangladesh, Nicaragua, etc that WHO helps in saving million of lives.


Does it then make sense for US to surrender to its world power status to China. You think China cannot afford the $400 million contributions to WHO to take absolute control if it further's their interests. This is a China that is ready to give Africa billions of dollars to take control of the continent.


Who has argued that the US have not tried for the world?
African countries contribute little to WHO because they are dead poor. They have non existent public health care services. WHO is the main reason why diseases like polio, meningitis, measles had not decimated your African brothers. Who is solely responsible for controlling and managing the treatment of AIDS in Africa.


You also want us to walk away from regional and global bodies to prove Nigeria is strong abi? You want Buhari to withdraw from ECOWAS to show strength.

If all countries adapt Trump's approach, and put it's country first in all issues despite the concern of others, we will slip into WW3 very fast. These world bodies had succeeded in giving us the longest period of relative peace in world history.



No problem to the developed world. It's your cousins, brothers, sisters and tribesmen back home that will start dying of simple diseases like Measles, Small pox, malaria, cholera, etc.

the poorly educated doesn’t realize the free mosquito nets their moms got in hospitals were all funded by USA via WHO. Infact eh I hate arguing on Nigeria filled threads, they are too ignorant.

You are just ranting bro
Nobody is feeling any entitled shit
Why are you laying emphasis on Nigerians been affected only what about all third world countries and let me tell you of you guys pull out or not what will be will be
Ain't you benefitting from the tax you pay cause I don't understand your problem.
The fact remains that USA is the world super powers because of all these responsibilities they are able to shoulder.

highflyer012020:
you are wrong. was it not as a member of WHO this convid -19 cases is increasinng ? america will solve their own health problem under trump than following biased WHO. same WHO that refuse to endorse madagascar drug that is effective, simply because it is from Africa. shame on WHO and Kudos to America . trump will be relected on november 3rd.America need action president not a rubber stamp like joe biden.ok

Why is Madagascar under lockdown if their paraga works?

you will never see reasons with what i said because you live in a society where the entitlement mentality reigns supreme. Let me ask you a question

- do you work at Julius Berger and receive Salary at NPA? nope, that is abnormal - America is for Americans and Nigeria is for Nigerians. IF AMERICA GIVES NIGERIA AID, it is a privilege NOT a right!

The way you are reasoning and responding here is making it look like America owes the world the debt of taking care of the world because of her status of being a super power - nope, we don’t owe the world that debt, In fact Russia, UK, Germany, China and even France are super powers in their own right. economically and otherwise

SO WHY SHOULD AMERICA ALONE BEAR THE BURDEN of helping every other country in the world? There is poverty too in America - there are homeless Americans everywhere in the cities. This is why Trump won as president - we want our resources to be used in making life better for fellow citizens.

Yes - I have benefits as a tax payer - things like tax refund - but that’s a little fraction of what I paid. 80% of what I paid is still with the government from where they send you aid in Africa and you end up calling us names here on nairaland

Oga- the average American is tired of funding dullards ruling African countries who embezzle with impunity - we will stop the aid so that when you see TINUBU, ATIKU or ORJI KALU on the ballot in 2023, you will think twice and look for maybe a SHEHU SANNI, SOWORE, FELA DUROTOYE or EZEKWESILI to vote for who can at least offer fresh ideas that can move the country forward

take care!

Chai! See this one. SMH

Compare him with your President buhari, you dey Nigeria Dey judge man wey don lead men, lead business, lead finance, lead teams, it take genius to stay on top, you hate him because others hate him, have you looked at his journey, read his book? Etc NO, because others are saying bad about him, you self join, hating who don’t even know you. Hating when he is doing the right thing. How about a man who have his own mind.

They would prefer disease wipe out their whole village including their old parents that as long as it's a trump decision. Sometimes, I think they would support Trump to nuke their whole village just to show loyalty to him.

wunmi590:


Why does this man like destroying things painting his image black infront of international community, what is his gain?

WHO that has been in existence even before he started nursing his presidential ambition is what he's withdrawing support from.

Why not probe them and see how they have been spending the money being given to them all this while? Does he think finding a cure to a pandemic disease is that easy?

Yes we know you contribute alot to the growth of WHO, but will you make other country who are benefiting from them suffer just because of your stupidity?

This man is just sick, he's not helping America, but he's destroying their image.

Please don't quote me if you dont have any sensible thing to say, sometimes I throw away my home training to respond harshly.

If WHO has done their homework very well, The whole world won't be ravaged by this pandemic...

Before putting up your post, do you know the same WHO covered up and shade away the awareness created by a Chinese Doctor who first told the whole world that CoronaVirus was an airborne virus and can be transmitted from human to human?? That was around November last year when the Virus was still at minimal cases in Wuhan city alone...Do you also know the said Doctor was immediately arrested and his license withdrawn??

Do you also know if not for WHO, the lives of over half a million people around the globe would have been averted??

Do you also know the POTUS has been receiving alot of backlash for the error caused by WHO even after funding the organization with trillions of dollars for years??

If you know all this and still blame Donald Trump from withdrawing their support to WHO because he felt the organization has been weaponize by the Chinese for mass destruction, then I think you should remove those cobwebs in your head...

I guess you ain't quoting from my write up because I never stated that....we all know people from different countries has rep in WHO, but if after reading my post and all you can come with is that question, Then i certainly don't have anything to say to you...

Ifesinachi22:
Hushpuppi's case has shown that when there's life, there's hope. He applied for a US visa but was refused, when it was his time to be lucky, the American govt came to take him to their country from Dubai without a visa but on a free flight. He neither paid for visa nor flight ticket. Its good to be patient and hopeful.

i pray you have same fate

The question is moot.

So no patriotic Americans amongst the hierarchy of WHO to blow the whistle?

How come Germany handled the pandemic a million times better?

Smart move. A man of actions not just empty words. If only our country (and her leaders) is strong enough to do same.

I am not feeling entitled
Are you saying United states the only country funding WHO?
Call it the Nigeria factor that's your own problem
If he withdrawals or not we would survive
What I am saying and I know is for a fact is that America shoulders all these responsibilities because they are the world super power nobody forced them to
Go and rest please
You are just talking like someone who is forced to stay in America
Nigeria has little percentage of benefit from Who compared to other countries
You don't have any point and mind you, America is not feeding us here in Nigeria
Nonsense

I believe one major benefit of presidency of Donald Trump is that America should stop spoon feeding the world.

Everyone should be responsible for themselves. This spoon feeding has allowed impoverished nations not to mature and develop.

In fact I believe Trump's policy is of benefit to these countries to mature.
For over 30years the one I know.
US past presidents have not meant well by making these nations to be lazy.

Even developed nations still depend on the US like NATO. So Trump is right.
Everyone should answer him papa name.

China is a country that is well know to hoard information to their citizens and by and large to the world at large. I do not expect America to depend on China for information that could affect Americans. The information on Covid 19 should have been available to American intelligence community like CIA. If WHO has failed, the whole has failed including America because WHO is populated by some Nationals including Americans.

What exactly has America done for Nigeria

alezzy13:


Stop being silly. No one is blaming him for the pandemic, it's his poor handling that has led to needless deaths. For a fact, why not compare with other G7 countries and you'll see a big difference.

I know it's difficult for you lot to admit, but Trump is a colossal failure as far as the COVID response has been.

For the records, When Trump restricted people coming into the country from China, Biden and Hilary Clinton called it harsh and racist.
Bye, CCN is one of the fakest things I have ever seen

Dalby:


Explain

Did you know that after the pandemic broke out in China, the WHO went to China, after an investigation the concluded the virus has no H2H transmission, that is it is not communicable.

That is a colossal failure by WHO. But you want us to blame Trump instead of holding China and WHO accountable for their actions.

So how do we believe WHO has not conspired with China to cripple world economy and take over?

DexterousOne:


The person you quoted is right


If most of the world ditch the USD

America will be finished
Like totally finished

That's why every president since Nixon (well before this mumu Trump took over) have been trying to be be more international in its approach and have good international relations

It strengthens the USD position abroad


Now the world does not trust USA


Well for many here

They dont understand these things
All they like is the gra gra that Trump displays

what do you know? Are you an economist? Quoting something you know.
FYI, the Chinese currency is not a hard currency but there economy is still booming

Xtianvic:

Actually I am an economist

So I well know what I am talking about.

If the USD lose its status

That's game over for them


And as for the Chinese

They are also running a fragile economic system that can fall apart at any moment

12inchess:
By the time Trump is done with the U. S they will curse him for generations. I'm waiting for him to withdraw from U. N. It's easy to always blame others for your inadequacies. Up till now, America has refused to enforce wearing masks. People are still doing whatever the hell they like and you're asking why the cases are rising?
I never really cared about Trump ko but at this rate, if he is giving 4 more years I hope he won't start a world war. He is very erratic and acts without thinking. I wonder how a president can discourage wearing masks when we all know masks help to curb flu-like diseases.

Every good leader should know it's not every info the public needs to know esp if it won't benefit them. For example, Trump had no business saying Coronavirus is just like a Flu. It's true the Corona is just like a flu virus but it kills more people and spreads more easily. There is also no known cure. His govt had no business saying only sick people shud wear masks. Up till now some people are still following his words and contacting the disease and passing it on. A careless leader like this should not rule the strongest country in the world.

The MSM are a big liar.
This is Texas for crying out loud

Trump is directly responsible for the Corona decimation in America

While it was expected that covid will eventually enter the US

It would not have been this disastrous only if he was more proactive.

That said

China was dishonest (as they always are) about the severity of this pandemic and did not talk in time so we have a global co ordinate response

That's their fault

And they will be punished for it in due course
China wont escape it
