In a candid interview on Arise TV from 7:10, Nigeria’s former minister of foreign affairs, Professor Bolaji Akinyemi expressed disappointment with the current state of American foreign policy and leadership, particularly in comparison to previous administrations led by presidents such as John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton.

Akinyemi argued that while America has had a history of involvement in global conflicts, past administrations were more open to dialogue and collaboration with other nations.

In contrast, he criticized the current approach as self-centered, emphasizing that America’s decisions should consider the welfare of the entire world, not just its own interests.

Akinyemi’s statement reflects on the changing dynamics of international relations and the role of the United States in shaping global affairs.

According to Bolaji Akinyemi, “That is why I’m so unhappy. That’s why I refuse to say good morning because this America is not the America of JFK. It’s not the America of Obama. It’s not the America of Bill Clinton. Now, I’m not saying that America was ever a saint in the world. America has started more wars since the Second World War than anyone we knew of, but at least there was an America you could speak to. That was an America whose decision makers you could reason with, not the America of the new ‘comms’ that thinks once it is good for America, they don’t care about the rest of the world.”
