Africa to the Africans

Obama was not though enough on the African dinosaurs. Why can't he cut all aid to the 50 African countries that are run by dictators and deal only with South Africa, Ghana and Botswana until others follow their examples?
There is no need playing hide and seek with kleptocrats like Paul Biya, Sassou Ghesso, Mubarak, Khadafi, Yarudia etc.... Shall I name all 50 dinosaurs here?

Cut the ties and let them see that they are in a parallel world and that they need to change and change will happen.

africa western and other north eastern aeras.

When they stop playing soldiers and worry about the welfare of it people it will progress,they seem to have enough munitions and bullits ,but food seems the least priority.well my opinion anyway.

africa after 24hrs

Obama was right the destiny of africa is in the hands of africans .The question is for how long do we want to remain in the third world whilst our peers are in the first world.The first world has opened doors for us and it seems we are not taking advantage of all this.I beleive the AU and other regional bodies need to take stock of themselves and overhaul.There is need work on set targets and goals with a strict time frame and accountability and if you miss these targets certain heads must role.
