COVERED IN SHAME
Majority of those young Somali women you see around Nairobi are covered in the shame of having had their vaginal opening sewn or sealed after FGM—known as Type III FGM/infibulation.
There’s doctor in Kilimani who charges upwards of Kshs.250,000 for a procedure called deinfibulation that surgically opens the scar tissue that seals or severely narrows the vaginal entrance after Type III FGM
A man after dropping off his wife in a shopping mall for shopping he stayed back in the car and as he was waiting for his wife to return there passed a very pretty and beautiful woman who packed a few meters away. The man got out of the car and went to get this lady’s phone number. Immediately as he got out of his car a speeding truck lost control and rammed into his car.
Moral of the story: Never stop taking numbers from beautiful ladies, it can save your life 😎
Firstly, Ethiopia is under US sanctions while Vietnam is not. And speaking of former French colonies, Haiti was the first to get independence (1804) and is still one of the poorest countries in the world because of the debt they had to take on to gain independence (it took them until 1947 to fully repay it!). Whereas, New Caledonia is still a French colony and is neither rich nor poor.
"If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor..."
This line completely ignores the European powers' (and US) post-colonial control over Africa. Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the DRC, was tortured and killed by Belgium and the US for being a nationalist. His body was dissolved in acid so he wouldn't become a martyr. His legacy is largely unknown even within the continent. Several other such "lessons" were meted out. Google Thomas Sankara (Burkina Faso) and Sylvanus Olympio (Togo).
Once you set the example, you gain obedience. The VietCong, on the other hand, didn't surrender even though 3 million Vietnamese died during the war, and several thousand more continue to die to this day (!) from Agent Orange exposure.
As for former French colonies in Africa, France still controls their currency and holds their central bank reserves in France. As Rothschild purportedly said, "permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws."
Third, the borders in Africa were drawn in such a way that conflict was inevitable. At the Berlin Conference in 1884-85, the European powers simply carved up the continent by drawing straight line borders. African leaders were conspicuous only by their absence at this historic event which shaped the next century. This is why Cameroon, a French-speaking country, has a minority English-speaking territory, ensuring it remains destabilized. Likewise for West Asia/the Middle East, where the Sykes-Picot legacy lives on.
@magattew conflates formal colonial rule with colonial control. Vietnam managed to fully kick out both France and the US, reunified the North and the South, and kept its sovereignty. All African leaders who attempted the same have been systematically eliminated (see Muammar Gaddafi, Libya's divisive leader, for a recent example), ensuring Africa forever bears the open wounds of its colonial legacy.
But Ms. Wade is right on one thing: Vietnam owes its prosperity to overcoming colonial rule. Maybe Africa can become prosperous if Africans do the same.
South African Muslims are governed by the Muslim Supreme Council of South Africa (MUSCOOSA).
South African Jews are governed by The South African Jewish Board of Deputies (SAJBD).
Afrikaners are governed by Afriforum & the Freedom Front Plus (Vryheidsfront).
These organizations are more important than South African laws and the Constitution.
What this means is: If SAn laws or the Constitution goes against what these bodies stand for, they fight aggressively to change the laws or find ways to insulate themselves against the laws.
Does your racial group, religious group or cultural group have governing bodies that fight for you, lobby government, offer funding & insulate you from laws that prejudice your people?
