Dear All:
Many Americans know that the country's President (Mr. Trump) and his supporters were craving for the 
Nobel Peace Prize, hence his North Korean and other zealous efforts at expensive  peace summit meetings. 
To him, African nations are "Sh...t hole" countries. What, then, will he say now, as the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize has 
been awarded to Prime Minister Ably Ahmed, from one of Mr. Trump described "sh...t hole" countries? Can the Nobel 
news make Mr. Trump see African nations in favorable terms now?

A.B. Assensoh.

The loud barking of the bullish hound does not prevent the eagle from flying high, right? Let's ignore the naysayers and enjoy the laurel!

“Can the Nobel news make Mr. Trump see African nations in favorable terms now?”

Elder Assensoh,

As the Hausa say: kome ka yi da jaki sai ya ci kara ‘whatever you do to a donkey, it will eat straw’.
