Africa is such an awesome continent. It's a shame it's plagued with bad leaders. I wonder what the shameless animals discuss in the African Union meetings. They should all be lined up and shot in the head. They have made us the laughing stock of the world. I know one day things will get better. We Africans need to start believing in ourselves, because it is us that can transform this continent not the white man that only comes to take advantage of our bad leadership to get whatever resources they want.

That's why there are whites living in South Africa to rob the continent of all it's gold, and the reason there is war in the Congo is over Cobalt which is used in phones, PC's, Tv's, Laptops etc... the whites started the war between the different tribes so they can maintain control over their resources otherwise they would have to pay extortionate prices to the Congolese because it can't be found anywhere else in the world, they've been using the same method all over Africa since they arrived, that's why they don't like Mugabe he kicked them out and retook control. Too many Africans don't understand that Africa is underdeveloped because during colonization they were brainwashed after foolishly trusting the whites, oyinbos are the only real problem. People better understand right now.
