Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - CORRECTED: Closer look at Amina - Buhari relationship!

VC Aluko:

 

We cannot afford to have either a live or a caricature Trump on this enlightened as well as intellectually-stimulating Dialogue! Mr. Trump, as alleged, thinks that if an Actor could twice be elected USA President, then he is also qualified for the position. Well, not on our Dialogue medium that is ably moderated by a Distinguished Historian from Ibadan!
