American-Nigerian Professor, Uju Anya, currently have something in common.
They believe just departed Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth, does not deserve any tears from Africa.
Anya had sparked a global shock when she went as far as wishing the dead more than a rough passage to the other side.

Her argument is that the Queen and the English establishment had not only subjected her forefathers to agonising slavery, they had also allegedly contributed to the killing of 3 million Igbos during the Nigerian Civil War.
“I HEARD THE CHIEF MONARCH OF A THIEVING RAPING GENOCIDAL EMPIRE IS FINALLY DYING.
MAY HER PAIN BE EXCRUCIATING.
I ONLY WISH MY HATRED HAD THE EFFECT ON HER THAT HER MONARCHY HAD ON MY PEOPLE,” she had tweeted.
There has been an uproar against her cry but she remains adamant.
On his part, Seun slammed Africans mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth, writing:
“We as Africans continue to fear the witches but honour those that burn them!
With all these noises online, it’s obvious we don’t know our selves.
The millions of Africans murdered by that woman and her family are wondering where your heart and soul is today!
You are mourning ? Africans are mourning?
Today, we should be partying.
You all party every time, your life revolves around the party but yet you don’t know when to throw one!! #getthesax.
I will always side with my ancestors and all indigenous people, seeking justice in this world.”
