“The P.A. to the Secretary of State said he and his boss had no time to meet a failed and treacherous former VP who had shady ties with malevolent forces in the Middle East and who could end up being prosecuted by the FBI sometime in the future.”

 

Kayode mocked, “Soon they will deny all this happened and ask one or more of their many garrulous and asinine spokesmen to do their job and say that the trip was a ‘great success’.”
