: There is a new report gaining MOMENTUM inside Nigeria - the report says that Beyonce and Jay Z received $1M that was designated for starving African children. They supposedly have DOCUMENTATION that shows the governor of Bayelsa - where 47% of the population live in poverty - diverted $1M in aid to Jay Z and Beyonce.
Here is what is being reported by the online news mag Saharareports.com:
SaharaReporters has uncovered a document indicating that a million dollars of Bayelsa State’s poverty alleviation fund was spent by then Governor Goodluck Jonathan on bringing American entertainers Beyonce and Jay Z to Nigeria in 2006.It's not clear what IF ANY laws were broken - by the promoters, Jay Z, or Beyonce.
In a letter stamped and signed by Bayelsa officials, N150 million (approximately a million dollars in 2006) was released from the state’s poverty alleviation fund for the first ThisDay Music Festival in Lagos.
The document came to light after a controversy was ignited over how much money American “reality TV” star Kim Kardashian was paid for a brief visit to Nigeria. . .
The sources who provided the 2006 document for Beyonce and Jay Z’s visit told Saharareporters that there was a shady financial link between the producers of some high profile entertainment events and the governors and other officials who control budgets at the state and federal levels. Mr. Obaigbena’s newspaper, ThisDay, is a major sponsor of entertainment events that brings US music stars as well as top public figures for flying visits to Nigeria in exchange for gargantuan paychecks. . .

I agree, but then that comes with knowing the history of where you are going, which Beyonce and Jay-Z probably didn't know the state of the economy. From what I understand 47% of the people in Bayelsans live in proverty. And since Bayelsa was one of the states projected during Beyonce's performance, folks are probably going to look at it from the standpoint of "how could you not know" and that they could have at least left a donation.
HOW THE FK THESE people go to poor countries to perform and receive such amounts when children and families are starving. That 500k for Kim K to sit there with a dumb, bored look on her face was atrocious!! This is why Blacks or Africans in this case never get anywhere. That money should be spent to prop up their economy, advance tech, research, housing, food, ***, promote trade and business to assist the people of that nation. Paying all this money to invite chicks to gyrate or sit there and look a fool is just stupid. No wonder the *** were ***.
Does the "staff" of MTO share a brain? Seriously, folks. Bey and Jigga aren't accused or suspected of doing anything wrong. The *** government allegedly redirected funds from a poverty initiative to a PR fund to get celebrities to come to the country to help with its image. Pretend to be able to sort though facts every blue moon. But then all the publicity isn't hurting the first couple, is it?
I TOLD YOU THAT THESE TWO SATAN WORSHIPPERS WERE PIECES OF SH*T!!! I DON'T SUPPORT NEITHER ONE OF THESE TWO SELLOUTS! F*CK THEM! THEY ARE APART OF THE BLACK BOULE. THE BLACK BOULE (OPRAH WINFREY, BILL COSBY, DENZEL WASHINGTON, JAY-Z, BEYONCE, MICHAEL JORDAN, MORGAN FREEMAN, WILL SMITH) ARE ALL WELL-PAID BLACK CELEBRITIES THAT TOOK AN OATH NOT TO HELP POOR BLACK PEOPLE IN EXCHANGE FOR FAME AND WEALTH. AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT HELP BLACK PEOPLE, THEY WILL REMAIN WEALTHY AND FAMOUS. YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME? THEN GO TO U TUBE AND TYPE IN "BLACK BOULE ***" AND SEE IT FOR YOURSELF. THESE TWO SELLOUT SATAN WORSHIPPERS ARE ALSO IN THE ***. I HATE THESE TWO ***! THEY ARE DOING A DIS-SERVICE TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE!!
Hope this is not True!

Lets be real meaning let us be honest without being bias meaning not being a hater or fan. The problem is not with Bey and Jay at all. The problem is with the governor. First of all why would you even take money to get these celebrities instead of taking care of what is important? Second of all Bey and Jay most likely did not know where this money was coming from and if they did they wouldn't have accepted this money. Honestly who checks where people are getting the funds to pay them to make an appearance at this event. One thing I know is that they would not take money that is meant to help the people in poverty. So you have to look at this situation rationally. Bey and Jay obviously did not know where this money was coming from and the problem is not with them its with the governor. The only smart thing to do is to ask Bey and Jay to give back the money. Point Blank Period. People you need to start thinking rational and stop thinking with hate.
THAT'S REAL SAD! THESES CLOWNS HAVE MONEY COMING OUT THERE ***, AND I NEVER HEARD THEM GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY, NEVERRRR!!!! WHEN U DO DIRTY U GET DIRTY.....AND IF IT DON'T COME BACK TO THEM IT WILL COME TO THERE DAUGHTER, AND WHEN THEY DAY COME THEY WILL HAVE TO FACE A HIGHER POWER AND WON'T BE ABLE TO BRING THERE MONEY WITH THEM!
Get your headline righttttttt MTO, i think it should the former Governor Goodluck Jonathan who spent the money, pleazzzzzzzzz. Furthermore, $1,000,000 is a drop in the bucket for this charity supported couple. Get pics and headlines about the Governor, not the entertainers who were solicited to render service. *** MTO not even your trouble alert come out right.
MTO you azzholes! They misappropriated nothing, They were paid to show up. The person who misappropriated the monies was the one who was paying people to come to the country. They money was the fee they were paid for coming and so was the money paid to kim. So get the F*ck out of here. You MF hate on blacks like crazy and spead a bunch *** with the *** blog. *** on here believe this bs too!
Your headline is mendacious and disgusting!!!!! I'm not even playing no more. THIS time, the Carters lawyers should contact you all and tell you change your headline or they'll sue you a$$. Your headline expresses that these 2 were in on a scam. Wrong! The real story is the Pres spent a bunch of money on entertainers to show up and perform. Artists like Alicia Keys etc. but always these 2 get shoved in the spotlight. That British site reported it with jay and beys pic too. Sick of ppl lying on this couple!!!! And to y'all idiots saying they don't get back, you can tell you just came on here to hate, because they both have their charities and give back. Try googling so you don't look stoooopid!!!!!!!
Hold up one minute,i'm a *** and very much in the know of the goings on as regards payment to celebrities.The funds're generated by the private sector with some assistance from state govts playing host;in areas such as location,logististics & security.JayO'nce did no wrong either as they were paid to perform n do some PR which they executed most professionally- and there ends my epistle,thank you.
