The history of the third world nations and the cold war politics will not be complete without reference to Fidel Castro of Cuba, the only man who withstood and outlived over ten generation of former American Presidents. Fidel Castro is a Revolutionary General who had a strong patriotic affinity for his countrymen and the poor people all over the world, Like Karl Marx he detested the exploitative nature of capitalism, an ideology which brought enmity between him and the United States of America, one of Cuba’s closest neighbours. The climax of these crises was the historic Cuban Missile crisis and Havana’s diplomatic ties with Moscow.

Successive governments had attempted to fashion out means of developing the region. First, it was the government of Obasanjo that created the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC through an Act of the National Assembly with the mandate to facilitate the development of the area that feeds the whole nation and yet her people go hungry.

With the electoral votes of 274 for trump and 218 for Clinton, the results clearly show that the Americans( not CNN and Nigerians) have spoken and the decision is that Trump is the president elect. Mrs Clinton has fought as a brave woman and for this she remains a heroine, a role model for young people and women all over the world that want to maintain parity over their male contemporaries.

In few hours from now the good people of the United States will exercise their franchise by electing the world’s most powerful leader in an election that will change the cause of events, either in favour of Mrs Clinton or Mr Trump.
