Africa for [all] Africans

"I am an African. I am born of the peoples of the continent of Africa. The pain of the violent conflict that the peoples of Liberia, Somalia, the Sudan, Burundi and Algeria is a pain I also bear.

The dismal shame of poverty, suffering and human degradation of my continent is a blight that we share.......

........This is a savage road to which nobody should be condemned."[excerpt from I am an African – President Thabo Mbeki]
