Trump made his controversial statement when he met United States legislators who came to see him about a bipartisan - meaning it is supported by Democrats and Republicans - bill on immigration, which Trump rejected.

The group, which represents the 55 countries on the African continent, said that Trump's remarks "dishonor the celebrated American creed and respect for diversity and human dignity", and that the administration has a "huge misunderstanding" of the continent.

"There is a serious need for dialogue between the US Administration and the African countries". At least one more African leader spoke up on Saturday.

Social media users across the continent posted images of modern skylines and handsome nature from their countries with the hashtag "s***hole". "I think it fundamentally poisons the relationship with numerous countries".

"First stop would be Osu Castle, Elmina Castle, and the over 40 Forts that detained about 30 million slaves, beaten and shipped out like sardine cans and then I will tell you the history of Africa and why people like you made that a "s***hole" continent". Some conservative commentators pushed that narrative following the news.

But Juba businesswoman Jenny Jore, 31, said Mr Trump's remarks were "on point". We will not accept such insults, even from a leader of a friendly country, no matter how powerful.

Why allow immigrants from shithole countries?

"The African Union condemns the comments in the strongest terms and demands a retraction of the comment as well as an apology to not only Africans but to all people of African descent around the globe", it said.
