        No Sir, they most certainly don't. Most of them pretend to support you because they don't want you getting involved in their seedy affairs. They prefer China because, they receive cash from China for their personal use. Why wouldn't a dictator like the one in Cameroon support u?

        That was powerful & proper observation. China need African minerals & their unregulated market that allow Chinese to sell poor quality products. Then cameroun's @PaulBiya pretends with the USA so that he is left free to kill his people & destroy his economies.

        But do THEY value and support you, as opposed to pillage and control you? You people will destroy the continent

        The US has been a leading supporter of the most vulnerable including those living with HIV/AIDS, refugees and people who are forcibly displaced. It should not retreat from these values. They are needed more than ever @USEmbassyAddis @USUN @StateDept

        It doesn't matter whether African leaders value the US, the fact of the matter is that Donald Trump has very little regard of the African continent. His derogatory remarks were Not a mistake, it's how Trump truly feels about Africa. I do Not expect Trump to make a trip to Africa!
