Queen Elizabeth II: Uju Anya, Piers Morgan, Trade Words
Reacting to her tweet, Morgan said, “I definitely want to interview you. I’d like you to try repeating to my face that you hoped the Queen died in ‘excruciating pain.’ But I suspect like most vile ‘woke’ trolls, you won’t have the guts.”
Nigerian-born American professor, Uju Anya and TV broadcaster, Piers Morgan, have been trading words over her comments on the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Uju took to her Twitter handle last Thursday to describe the Queen as the “chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire.” shortly after the queen’s deteriorating health was announced before her demise.
On her return to Twitter after being locked out, Anya revealed that Morgan wanted to interview her but will never get the opportunity.
“Piers Morgan calling me ‘vile, disgusting moron’ while his producer calling me for interview. Tufiakwa,” she tweeted.
Reacting to her tweet, Morgan said, “I definitely want to interview you. I’d like you to try repeating to my face that you hoped the Queen died in ‘excruciating pain.’ But I suspect like most vile ‘woke’ trolls, you won’t have the guts.”
Anya shot back, “No, Piers, you want to interview me, because your career died in excruciating pain, and you need the ratings. But I won’t let you chase clout off me. Like I said, I no dey put food for my enemy mouth.”
