Sen. Gershom Bassey (PDP Cross River South) on Friday, said the condemnation of Africans and African-Americans by a US presidential aspirant, Donald Trump, was a crude form of racism.
Bassey, who was reacting to media reports credited to the Republican Party man, said in Abuja that racism should never be mixed with politics, adding that politicians should not be bigots.
“What I can say generally it that it is bigotry, racism and all that, in all forms must be condemned and we shouldn’t use that in politics.
“If we have issues with people we should stick to the issues and leave all these sweeping statements about different races and all that.
“It is the crudest form of racism and I think if Donald Trump did actually say that, he should find a way to retract that statement, otherwise, he will find that at the end of the day, it will come back to haunt him,” he said.
The media reports said that Trump referred to Africans as lazy fools, only good for lovemaking and thuggery.
The report also credited him as saying that if he became U.S president, he would deport all African-Americans to their countries in Africa. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

It serves Africans and African-Americans right. What is wrong with Africans, are the Oyibos better than us? Not at all. Yet we refused to develops our selvesselves, after all Africans are supposed to have the best brains. Can they study under our educational condition and make out anything? As for the Stump or Trump, whose organ can not be erect for 5 seconds ,is just been jealous of Africans whose erection powers know no limitlimit. May be let him hire us to service his wife for him.
ReplyDeleteBros u are there. We will service his wife since he doesn't have power to do that. Stupid truck or trump.
DeleteI have my doubts if Donald Trump would ever made such a public statement in the United States! A thorough investigation of such insults must be made and ascertained as correct before the Senate takes appropriate action. Donald Trump must realize that he made his fortunes throughout the world not through the United States alone!
