A recent post showed Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala debunking claims that she helped Biafra secure loans from the World Bank and IMF, sparking heated online discussions. Among the reactions, a comment from @starpickng read, “This woman is a thief, I don’t know why people always celebrate her,” showing strong negativity without basis.
Such remarks lack substantiation and contribute to a hostile narrative without evidence. Okonjo-Iweala, a globally recognized economist and Director-General of the World Trade Organization, has been celebrated for her contributions to economic reforms and international finance. Comments like these not only disregard her achievements but also reflect a tendency to dismiss public figures without understanding their work or contributions, fueling unnecessary controversy.
