ettybaba: Don't you think if Obama had done very well it would have bn a smooth ride into the white house for Hillary Clinton? The same way you are applauding Obama from a distance but hated by some Americans is the same way part of the outside world sees buhari as a good guy. Until you are under a govt in that country, you wouldn't know what the average citizen is going through. |

careytommy7: I think Amy Sherald was looking at Tiwa Savage when she was painting Michele Obama or it could that the wrong portrait was unveiled. Obama and Michelle should’ve complained.

gbosaa: Are you saying Mitchell is not fine like that? Anyway, Tiwa is better looking than that portrait. |

baby124:And that is your problem? Or it is because Kehinde is not a name from your tribe? |
Re: Kehinde Wiley Paints Obama’s Official Portrait (Photos) by Nobody: 7:16am On Feb 13, 2018 |
careytommy7: If I saw that portrait elsewhere, I’ll never know it was the painting of Michelle Obama. It doesn’t look like her in anyway. |

gbosaa: Yep, the face on that painting doesn't like anything like Mitchell |

baby124: Just listen to yourself, "His father is a Nigerian, he is not a Nigerian because he didn't grow up in Nigeria" how dumb is that? So, a goat stop becoming a goat the moment the goat change location...abeg get sense. Why dont you wipe off his DNA if you can to prevent him from being a Nigerian. I just dont understand your bitterness...this is not good for your health. Whether or not he was born here or raised here doesn't stop him from having his ancestry from Nigeria...You can go and deal with that. Nigeria is in such a mess because of negative thinking people like you...you can't be bitter and expect positive energy to propel you into fulfillment, its just not possible. Be positive in your thinking and attitude and watch your life transform for the better...thank me later. |

Because his name is kehinde doesn't mean he is a Nigerian. |

A black man painted another black man's portrait. All this talk of tribe is not going to do none of you any good. Just look at how we're bickering over which tribe is the greatest and then some guest [may be a foreigner] will be looking at how we're arguing like children. Honestly, why wouldn't Trump call third world countries "shitholes" when we're good at letting shit come out of our mouth?! |
