  • If you don’t know who Donald Trump is, we have no words for you. For those who do, you must be aware of all the controversy the U.S Republican presidential candidate has steered in the course of the elections campaign. His disturbing and unconventional suggestions in dealing with Islamic terrorism and the Migrant crisis facing 1st world countries have earned him biting criticism worldwide. These reactions to the billionaire businessman are more than hilarious.

    1. Little Miss Flint, Amariyanna ‘Mari’ Copeny met with President Obama in May, after penning a viral letter to him about the contamination of water sources in Flint, a city in Michigan.

    2. But look at Mari’s reaction when she met Donald Trump, who visited Flint as part of his campaign tour.

    3. Americans hilariously summed up Mari’s reactions on twitter, and of course dragged Donald Trump too.

    4. It appears it’s not only Democrats and Little Miss Flint that are scared of Trump, this eagle he used as a prop for an interview seems to want a piece of him too.

    5. But just look at calmly President Obama handled this photo session with another bald eagle.

    6. Even these babies could not seem to stand Trump, while he held them for photo ops at the republican rally in Colorado.

    7. But see our Uncle Barack here handling another set of babies like a PRO!

    8. Still wondering why people just don’t like Trump? Check out when he didn’t care about the lady beside him, versus Obama who braved the rain and left the umbrella for First Lady Michel.

  • Chimamanda Adichie’s Comment On Natural Hair Has Broken The Internet Once Again
    We are in the era where blackness is celebrated across the world. People of colour are beginning to wear their culture proudly and standing tall against all forms of racial discrimination.

    Also, the 1st black president of the U.S, Barack Obama, will be stepping down later in 2016 after 8 years in office. As expected, this has to be the most talked about topic of the year.

    Chimamanda Adichie, being very vocal about political issues, spoke about Barack Obama’s election and his amazing wife, Michelle.

    She stated that Barack Obama would’ve lost the election if his wife, Michelle, wore her natural hair.

    But Nigerians think her statement may be a little exaggerated.

    But is an afro really separate from black skin?

    For those that think Chimamanda was undermining President Obama’s effort…

    Let’s not forget how strongly the society views the First Lady’s image.

    Because a black woman’s natural hair hasn’t always been accepted in the West.

    And African American women with kinky hair texture are usually seen as unprofessional in the workplace.

    However, this doesn’t mean women who choose to not wear their natural hair are any less. It is not a battle about what type of hair is better.

    For those who were reaching, it’ll be nice to not forget that she also said an afro should only be regarded as normal hair which is only right.

    If a 3-year-old child, Blue Ivy, was getting backlash especially from black people for wearing her natural hair, what do you think would’ve happened if Michelle wore her natural hair?
