The Carnegie Mellon University professor was finally able to access her Twitter account after her terse criticism of the English monarchy that put her in crosshairs with the likes of the Amazon boss, Jeff Bezos.
Thanking everyone who showed her support and signed petitions on her behalf, she said, “You showed me something very important: I have people.”
Anya’s access to her Twitter got restricted after news surfaced that Queen Elizabeth II had fallen ill and she took to her page to wish the English colonial monarch an “excruciating” death.
This stirred heated reactions, with the likes of Jeff Bezos condemning her. “This is someone supposedly working to make the world better? I don’t think so. Wow,” he said.
And she slammed him. “Otoro gba gbue gi. May everyone you and your merciless greed have harmed in this world remember you as fondly as I remember my colonizers,” she said.
Now she is back and her job is safe, despite calls to get her fired. “From what I’ve been told, there is no plan to sanction or fire me, and my job is not in jeopardy. My university leadership showed very clearly they did not approve of my speech; however, they stand in firm support of my freedom of expression on my own personal social media,” she wrote on Twitter last night.

Nonsense, is this the only way the professor could agitate for her homeland. Arrant nonsense, desecrating the dead over what she barely knows anything about. We Africans are still brain dead, the worst being those who parades themselves as educated elites like this manacled prof. If you feel this so bitter about the past most especially ' slavery' colonialism, why not become an agitator and lead to effect anything your movement may chose to struggle on. In short we're lazy, chronically dependent, chronic moaners, dishonest about our selves and role in our stagnation. How could you live all your life blaming others for your underdevelopment. If my memory could serve me right, the Indian subcontinent spent more time under the yolk of colonialism than most of Africa, yet Indian is long gone- with Hindi as the official language, not English as its official language. Meanwhile, all African countries continue to treasure the colonial names of their countries, the colonial languages, the colonial way of everything, yet they want that very colonizer respect and treat them fairly and respectfully. The group with the greatest responsibility for Africa and Africans demise are its own elites who continue to squander and loots its meager resources, disappoint and deceive the people at elections for its own class interest. Let the learned professor go to bed and lead Africans in agitating the change of names and language from colonial tags to its own- and there are many to drink from . This lady is a true manifestation of the African mindset- cowardice and infatuation with rubbish, i mean all these years she couldn't have the gut to shout her anger until the Queen is dead- she could only yank at the dead not a living European. The Queen live an honored life and was born in 1926 not 1826, you goat.

Tell any sustained African intellectual have made toward the development of any African countries other than canvassing political positions and laundering state program funds into foreign banks. Who do you think have crippled Nigeria to very low of its history- the intellectual hired by passionless and vision blind politicians to work. Do you think Jonathan and Buhari's cabinets manned by illiterates, nope ! Only in Africa the we worship people either because they're highly educated or they're political leaders- you see why they treat the rest of mankind as idiots who shouldn't never open their mouth to question their being. Granted she worked hard to earn her degrees, but that achievement is her self fulfillment,but her success should be measured on how much did she contribute to human development outside the classroom. Since Ken Saro-wiwa passing who has dared fill his shoes, none. Only in Africa these things happen - the endless blaming of our ancestors , the colonialist and the illiterates, all of whom got nothing to do with our continuous underdevelopment. Stop getting panicked over them , most have done nothing for their communities other incite tribalism and regionalism for political gains.

Man! This is epic! Weldone sir! Singapore, India, Malaysia and a host of other countries were in colonial rule just like Nigeria, if not for much longer. These nations have long moved on and even caught up with a lot of those European nations who were formerly their masters. Yet, gullible Nigerians are still blaming the British after over 60years of independence. Very unfortunate!
