I walked the halls of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business, just like Donald Trump. I read the same books as Elon Musk during his tenure there, took the same exams as Warren Buffett, and danced to the same music as John Legend and Shakira did when they were students there . Despite this prestigious education, I was never taught that Nigeria was more corrupt than the USA by Professor Zuckerberg . So, why do people keep labeling Nigeria as corrupt when its level of corruption pales in comparison to the USA?
Consider Donald Trump, who declared bankruptcy six times and is fighting for his freedom charged with corruption in a New York court room ,and whose son-in-law left the White House with a Saudi check for $1.4 billion. Yet, you insult us without addressing the glaring issues in your own backyard.
Almost $200 billion has been sent to Volodymyr Zelensky—$200 billion in just two years to a country you claim is the most corrupt in Europe. However, not one dollar has been transparently accounted for to the American people. Meanwhile, President Biden continues to send money that isn’t his to a foreign country, while the streets of Philadelphia, New York, and Los Angeles are overwhelmed with homeless people battling addiction.
Whenever I critique your heroes, the backlash is immediate. You—the superpower that hastily retreated from the Taliban in Afghanistan, abandoning $7 billion worth of military equipment after twenty-one years and trillions of dollars spent with no tangible benefits.
Now, consider Israel, where genocide is occurring before the world’s eyes, and yet you dare call Africa a “shithole”? You possess the necessities but lack the infrastructure, you hypocrites of a dwindling power. Your ancestors fled religious persecution, stole the land, and decimated the indigenous people of what you now call the United States.
God blessed Africa with a natural defense—the mosquito, armed with the ‘atomic bomb’ called Malaria, which thwarted your attempts to colonize West and Central Africa. Meanwhile, your continuous wars claimed the lives of countless of our kin in the lands you now inhabit.
As brown people approach your southern border and you funnel billions to Israel for conflicts in the Middle East, supplying Zelensky with endless resources, your domestic priorities falter. The elderly statesman in the White House dozes, oblivious to the chaos, as we, observers, can only laugh.
Wishing you enlightenment on your day.
