Throwback:


What was the trademark when President John F Kennedy appointed his own brother, Robert F Kennedy as the Secretary for Justice and Attorney General of America?

st as Robert F Kennedy got the job done for his brother's government.

1.RFK's appointment was severely criticsed at the time...and he always worked under a cloud as a result. (He also initially reluctant to take the job because of the nepotism allegation). He was a good attorney general...but he had to work twice as hard because people were looking at him one kind.

2.Trump...never...ever...appointed any of his family members to office. His sons were busy running his businesses...(he even handed the businesses to them in public), and as for Ivanka and her husband, any thing they did for the government was informal, and they were not on the government payroll, otherwise trump would have been in even more trobule.


Anyway, since 1967, appointing family members or relatives to US government office by a sitting president has been illegal

§ 3110 (also known as the 1967 Federal Anti-Nepotism statute), federal officials are prohibited from appointing their immediate family members to certain governmental positions, including those in the Cabinet.


(Trump had a sister who was a federal judge, but she was appointed there long before he went into politics,she was appointed based on her experience, and was billed to retire in a few years anyway as at 2019...and she did).

Racoon, please answer my simple question. This is not about Nigeria politics discussion for you to say I am taking side.

Do those appointed people have the qualification and experience to be in that position?

They may, but it does not make it right, because nepotisim.

na political appointment so he fit do anything he want just make sure he is not hiding money stolen by his father

Family business

Racoon:
This is the trade mark of Africa's sit-tight power drunk autocratic and tyrannical leaders. They monopolise political power simply for nepotism, clannishness, ethno-religio-regional supremacist agenda just to continue to perpetuate themselves in office even to the detriment of their citizens and countries

Nepotism is bad and should be condemned anytime but this false narrative and notion that is only takes place in Africa is complete BS.
Even here in the US under Trump, the US was represented at the UN by his own daughter. His son in law Kushner was rhe de facto Secretary of State making deals on behalf of the US govt with other countries while seriously enriching himself and Ivanka Trump.
Also, when Kennedy was President back in the 60s, he made his brother Robert F Kennedy the Attorney General of the United States.
There are.many many more examples.
All these it can only happen in Nigeria or Africa are often not very true.

Zimbabwe wake up and smell the coffee in the air. Countries are liberating themselves don't be left out.

Can you see another animal leader from Africa

When will this nonsense stop? Abegi.......when the military takes over, the almighty U.S. and Europe will start calling for sanctions!

FakeNEWSevryday:
Africa's Democracy is different from the rest of the world.
African democracy is defined:
government of the family, by the family and for the family

Riiiight. So, you were asleep when Trump appointed his daughter and son-in-law to government posts in American democracy? Rubbish!

African leaders keep family and work completely unrelated, #THENOTORIOUSBIG!

Chai. See lie. Why are you lying? There is nothing informal when Ivanka and her husband got official roles and offices in the White House. The only one claimed to be unpaid was Ivanka. They both got official roles and offices. Jared was a senior adviser.

This is the news from the time.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/ivanka-trump-named-assistant-president-new-role-n740241

Here are quotes for the lazy.

"Ivanka Trump is now officially an employee of the U.S. government.
The White House announced Wednesday that she will take no pay and serve as an assistant to the president. The role comes after NBC News confirmed earlier this week that the first daughter would have an office in the West Wing."


"Ivanka's husband, Jared, also serves in the administration as a senior adviser. He was recently appointed to head a new White House office that seeks to solve government problems with a business sector approach."


The Trump presidency proved one thing in the USA; The president can break as many laws as he/she wants as long as his party has enough congressional power and will to block all impeachments. So, guy, stop lying.

African leaders do not learn. He is well on his way to dictatorship.

Was Africa cursed?.
