ilovebiafrans Congrats to him but Florida? Desantis? Nope ...

There is nothing to celebrate, Gov. Desantis has very useless anti democratic policies and this Nigerian is likely going to dissappoint us all.

Dr Ladipo is not the first Nigerian doctor to curry favor with the Conservatives. Trump was a big fan of Dr. Stella Immanuel of demon sperm fame in Houston. The one thing they have in common is that they are both Vaccine and mask skeptics and advocates of hydroxychloroquine

Just the way we are poaching diaspora brilliant kids in football & basketball ..The Nigerian Government are supposed to be poaching these brilliant Nigerians in the govt of other nation & bringing them over here to serve their fatherland

Ok. If Florida considered him still a Nigerian, with the wayward let’s steal it all attitudes that define some Nigerians, they wouldn’t have given him the job. Just so you know🤪
