Great thread.... interesting... educative. They did well to make his home a monument... a tourist attraction. Just going through this thread brought on a sadness in me... is like it touched my soul ... this man is the legend of legends. But then I got angry when almost all of our African leaders instead of following the path of this our own ... follow a different path that leads us to disunity and genocide. 14 Likes |
