“He is very humble, brilliant and outstanding in every way you can think of. He has achieved outstanding success in Wall Street and he’s a proud ambassador of Africa, which he started in Kings College.

For him to be appointed into Trump’s Economic Advisory Team is a honour to Africa and especially to Nigeria. He will add value to the Trump’s team and he’s worthy of celebrating.

Prior to his appointment, Bayo Ogunlesi has been a pride of Africa; he reached the pinnacle of his career in Walls Street through his company which he built from the scratch. He is a round peg in a round hole,”he said.

“I am not speaking for the Nigerian diplomatic community because I am not in the position to do so; it’s for the Embassy in Washington to do.

Speaking as a Nigerian, it is a good indication and positive development for Africa and Nigeria that we are among the best brains everywhere.

It is also to show you that one in every five Blacks is a Nigerian. It is a good indication for our economic and foreign policy.

It also shows that Africa and Nigeria have good ambassadors everywhere. Ogunlesi has to see himself as a representative of the Black race as the only Black man that made the list by further distinguishing himself.

I advise him to use his opportunity well and he should bring together people of integrity who will not smear his integrity,” Bolaji said.

Donald Trump was taken off the stage by security personnel during a Saturday night rally in Reno, Nev., when a man appeared to rush the stage.
The Republican presidential nominee noticed a protestor in the crowd and told event security to remove him.
But as Trump looked out over the crowd to spot the protestor, two men in suits ran to the stage, grabbed him by the shoulders and rushed him behind the curtain.
A group of security officials jumped over the barricade, protecting the stage and looking into the crowd, backing up shocked attendees who tried to take video of the protestor. Images emerged on social media of armed guards encircling someone on the ground.
Security led a bald man out of the convention hall as the crowd cheered and also booed the protestor. Moments later, a rally speaker took to the stage to tell the unsettled crowd that "nobody is going to stop this movement." Trump returned to the stage moments later to continue his speech. The energetic crowd cheered his return.
Trump, who didn't appear unsettled, briefly addressed the incident before jumping back into his speech. "Nobody said it was going to be easy for us, but we will never be stopped. Never ever be stopped," Trump said. "I want to thank the Secret Service. These guys are fantastic – they don't get enough credit," he said.
A few minutes later, the businessman paused to thank his supporters for helping to protect him as the man rushed the stage. "I want to thank all these people," he said, pointing to the area where the man was stopped.
"I saw what you were doing – that's a tough group of people right there. I saw that, that was pretty amazing. Nobody messes with our people," he said.
After the rally, MSNBC's Jacob Rascon tweeted a picture of what appeared to be heavily armed police officers guarding a bathroom where the man had presumably been taken by officers.

““It is very true that when I was starting out in the movie industry, it was difficult to get roles because of my complexion. I faced that a lot and I tell people that my success is just grace. Somebody once told me that I am too dark but that is where the grace and favour of God comes in. Regardless of everything, most of the dark-skinned actresses that are my contemporaries made it.”
