Twitter pulls vile tweet against Queen Elizabeth by Nigerian Prof Uju Anya, calls mount for her sack
Employer disowns her comments

Twitter has pulled down an offensive tweet against the late British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II by modern language professor, Uju Anya.
She had tweeted in the dying moments of the late monarch: ‘I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating’
The tweet attracted instant condemnation from across the world. Her vile words were also slammed by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
Queen Elizabeth died on Thursday at the age of 96, surrounded by members of the Royal Family at Balmoral Castle, Scotland.
Hundreds of people have previously tried to get her fired from her teaching job for her violent, racist words.
She was called out online for using a word meaning ‘cotton picker’ and 800 petitioned to have her removed
Uju Anya is an ‘anti racist’ teacher and associate professor at the Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and she sparked outrage after calling the ailing Queen the head of a ‘thieving, raping, genocidal empire’.
Just before the death of the Queen was announced, Anya tweeted that she hoped the Monarch’s final hours would be of excruciating pain.
The sentiments were greeted with shock and outrage, and have reawakened calls for the controversial academic to be fired from her teaching job.
The exact words of Professor Anya were: ‘I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating.
‘If anyone expects me to express anything but disdain for the monarch who supervised a government that sponsored the genocide that massacred and displaced half my family and the consequences of which those alive today are still trying to overcome, you can keep wishing upon a star.
‘That wretched woman and her bloodthirsty throne have f***** generations of my ancestors on both sides of the family, and she supervised a government that sponsored the genocide my parents and siblings survived. May she die in agony.’
Twitter later removed the posts for violating their rules.
Billionaire Jeff Bezos responded: ‘This is someone supposedly working to make the world better? I don’t think so. Wow.’
Journalist Piers Morgan also added: ‘You vile disgusting moron.’
One horrified user said: ‘Don’t expect that of you but do expect common decency, respect for such a loss. If you cannot give that at this time, you are a disgraceful of a human being.’
Another added: ‘You are just so uncouth and manner-less. You speak of someone who just passed with such a vile and disdaining comment.
Carnegie Mellon University has distanced itself from Anya, telling DailyMail.com that it does ‘not condone the offensive and objectionable messages’.
‘Free expression is core to the mission of higher education, however, the views she shared absolutely do not represent the values of the institution, nor the standards of discourse we seek to foster,’ a spokesperson said.
Uju Anya, a teacher and associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is not new to controversy.
She has faced several storms for racist words she has used online. In one instance, the Foundational Black American organization created a petition to get her removed from Carnegie Mellon University.
Anya was called out for using an ethnic slur, which means ‘cotton pickers’ or ‘wild animals.’
The petition to get her fired garnered nearly 800 signatures.
It read: ‘Dr. Uju Anya can not be allowed to use the platform of Carnegie Mellon University Department of Modern Languages to further promote systemic racism through her blatant use of ethnic slurs on social media when referring to Foundational Black Americans.
‘This is a step backward in our fight to destroy systemic racism and discrimination for all people if institutions allow professors to become comfortable with using language as a weapon against people of color by people of color.
‘Society MUST hold all people accountable equally and we call on Carnegie Mellon University to take action against this type of egregious behavior to protect the reputation and integrity of the Higher Learning Institution.’
One person who signed the petition said that the professor can’t be trusted with children.
They added: ‘I’m concerned for the children. She can’t be trusted with kids. I wouldn’t want racist of any color teaching my children.’
Another added: ‘She needs to be fired. There’s no way in hell she should be allowed to teach Black American students. She’s a danger to any Black American she comes in contact with. FIRE HER NOW!’
And a third person, who signed the petition for the university to drop her, said: ‘She’s a hypocrite and an ethnic bigot.’
The vicious academic also found herself in hot water when he mocked the death of YouTuber Kevin Samuels in May 2022.
Samuels, who had 1.42million YouTube subscribers and nearly as many Instagram followers, was best known for some of his controversial dating advice. He passed away earlier this year.
But in the aftermath of his death she wrote: ‘Kevin Samuels told men their worth was in their wallet. He died in a 1BR sublet with less than $1K to his name, no partner, friend, or offspring wiling to claim him, only his poor mother begging and borrowing to bury his loathsome carcass.’
