Champ warns tyrants in Africa - Nuus24
2013-07-01
Cape Town - US President Barack Obama warned on Sunday that Africa could only fulfil its rising potential with leaders who serve their people, not tyrants who enrich themselves.
Green Energy schemes and kickbacks pay much, much better.
In a strident call for democratic change and good governance, Obama used the political legacy of ailing Nelson Mandela and South Africa's emergence from grim years of apartheid as proof that freedom will ultimately prevail.
That was only after he gave us a new glimpse of his college daze and his moment of ANC communist inspiration.
"In too many countries, the actions of thugs and warlords and human traffickers hold back the promise of Africa," Obama said at a speech at the University of Cape Town.
"Human trafficking" perfectly acceptable if they are of voting age. No ID necessary by the way.
"America cannot put a stop to these tragedies alone, and you don't expect us to. That is a job for Africans. But we can help you and we will help you," he said, announcing major new US programmes to boost electricity and health care.
$ 7b in USD borrowed from the Chinese to build grids for Chinese industry in Africa. Quite innovative.
