— Presidential Candidate Rollan Roberts II
DES MOINES, IOWA, USA, August 22, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Presidential Candidate Rollan Roberts spent the weekend in Des Moines, Iowa meeting with African and religious leaders from Liberia, South Sudan, and Zambia, which where facilitated by Dr. Gershom Sikaala. According to Roberts, “There are 10,000+ African immigrants in Iowa alone. They love family, God, America, and Africa. Neither political party and no other candidate has addressed the needs of the minority community in Iowa. I love a good fair, but someone needs to hear the grievances and support the hard-working immigrants that are an integral part to our economy and communities.” Roberts believes the 11+ million African immigrants in the United States will be key to his presidential victory.

Some of the largest African contingents in the United States hail from Nigeria, Ethiopia, Sudan, and Somalia. Much like the Hispanic community, they are very organized, connected, and move together. Roberts counts their support vital and humbling. Central to the Roberts campaign is improving the plight and destiny of American minorities, women, and youth with greater voice, relevance, and opportunity.

Dr. Roberts states, “I have spent years bringing clean water and education to Africa. While I was pouring my heart into helping develop the people and governments in Africa, many of them were coming to America to prepare the ground for me here. African and Hispanic immigrants are a mighty force, and American politics has never experienced the full impact of when they are fully mobilized. They are about to.”

Roberts has unveiled a comprehensive plan for abandoning foreign aid to African countries that has done nothing but plunged them deeper into poverty in favor of investing in African youth and infrastructure. Roberts said, “70% of the world’s youth will reside on the African continent by 2030. Every business and entrepreneur in the world will be clamoring to do business in Africa. With a supermajority of the world’s youth on one continent, the future of economic growth, trends, culture, peace, and ideology will be greatly influenced by African youth, and it is in America’s best interest to play a major role and influence in their success and thought process.”
