Yes we stand by the WHO n DrTedros.....its time to stand together n FightAgainstCoronavirus....United we stand WeAreTheWorld Of course they would. They are heavily in debt to China 🇨🇳 thus to openly criticize the communist regime for how it handled the Covid19 outbreak would be an act of political suicide. African leaders are notorious for rallying around corruption, so it comes at no surprise. All those questions and criticisms for Trump from US itself, we all know he needs to find someone to blame instead. Chinese virus, WHO, maybe the next is “Obama didn’t tell me”.
