Jeff Bezos Slams Uju Anya Over Tweets on Queen Elizabeth

American billionaire and chief executive officer of Amazon, Jeff Bezos has slammed US-based Nigerian don, Professor Uju Anya, over her comments following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Hours before the Queen’s death was announced, Professor Anya wrote on her Twitter page, “I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating.”

The tweet has since been deleted for violating “Twitter rules”.

In another tweet, she referenced the rumored role of the British empire in supplying the Nigerian government with arms and ammunition during the nation’s civil war which spanned 1967 – 1970.

“If anyone expects me to express anything but disdain for the monarch who supervised a government that sponsored the genocide that massacred and displaced half my family and the consequences of which those alive today are still trying to overcome, you can keep wishing upon a star,” she wrote, following the announcement of the Queen’s death.

The tweets drew the attention of many including Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos, who quoted the post and wrote, “This is someone supposedly working to make the world better? I don’t think so. Wow.”

Professor Uju is known for making controversial tweets. June 8th 2021, she tweeted about the death of Pastor TB Joshua and said “Celebrating the well-deserved death of lying thieving charlatan TB Joshua, who cheated millions out of people in their most desperate days with fake prophecies and cruel promises of miracles and cures for diseases from which he couldn’t even save his sorry self. Rot in piss.”
