You mention Africans living in the West. But you don't know what's called 'retributive justice.' Did your greedy slave-driving ancestors stay in the West? They went all over the world, wreaking havoc, enslaving people, snatching their resources, butchering multiudes in India, Africa, Latin America, etc. They impoverished those nations and you throw a fit if those same nations now travel to the west not to snatch or butcher, but work peacefully for the little they can earn. God isn't unjust!

China hardly meddles in the affairs of other people, India and the oil-rich Arab world ditto. You'd therefore, hardly see any African nation at logger-heads with them. But the Western world can't stop blood-sucking other people. Most often, they sponsor military coups if a president refuses to listen to them. Women children perish in such coups. And yet, they have the audacity to sermon about "democracy", "human rights". Just keep your mouth shut and leave other people alone. Africa is awake!

Clichyabarbes22, If you think Africans hate the West, keep going. I don't think you know history. Even today, our locals sing and dance to tourists. The crux here is the world will never be peaceful if Britain, USA, don't stop meddling in the affairs of other people, especially after doing all they did back in history. You talk about Africans blaming the West? How can't we when people like you can't even stop meddling in our domestic affairs even here on youTube?

Point is, inany nation, in which there's a prevalent culture of acountability, at any level,when a crisis develops-those in charge will step down,resign, etc- irrespective of whether the real culpability lies with them or not! Often it is purely symbolic, but it is done to preserve integrity and out of recogntion of the fact that certain things r unacceptable from a leadership. Zanu Pf and co. have decided that they belong to the school of thought that it diametrically opposed to this doctrine!

Some perspective on the accountability vacuum characteristic of leadership in general in Zim (not just a Zanu PF thing btw, though they r of course its fathers) Gideon Gono, guvenor of the RBZ has been in office since, what, 2003. Not once has this man offered his resignation-that despite inflation reaching over 1 million % during his term! Sure, its not all his fault, usay. But we all know -in a 'normal' country, that job would've changed hands 6 or 7 times by now in the same period!

Clichyabarbes22 - The reason why lots of Africans hate the UK and the West, is because of things like what happened to the Africans in the Chango islands, research what happened there, before you go talking shit about Africans who are rightly pissed off about the history of the West, and the UK - remember, it was Europeans who moved all those African's to America as part of the slave trade. It's the West, that led to destruction of the Amazon. African's are good people, and Mugabe was Knighted.

ebraco-The 2nd thing I despise is disloyalty treachery. I respect everyone, but the lot of Africans who post on utube say the worst things about whites the west while sitting comfortably in the UK, the US, Canada, AUS etc. are the worst kind of traitors. U have jobs a decent life bcuz of our nations u r able 2 send money back to ur relatives. Living in our nations is more than just changing ur address. We expect commitment. If u want 2 b African, go back. Gratitude is not a fault.

ebraco30-I am a father. I have 2 young adult children. One of the things I have taught them is to take responsibility 4 all thr actions good or bad 2 never, never search 4 someone to blame when things go wrong, but to search thr own hearts minds 4 correct behavior right solutions. This is called maturity taking responsibility. I despise people who blame others 4 thr problems. When r u going 2 take responsibility 4 the probs Africa faces instead of constantly blaming the west?

You don't even know what real prosperity or being rich means. What kind of wealth is a wealth built on not even owning the simple furniture in your living room? Everything has to be borrowed and paid on interest: your big-screen TV, couch, cars, house, computer, washer, dryer. Even the TV remote isn't yours until you finish paying it off. Is this what you call "rich"? Start worrying about your kids because who knows, they might be mortgaged too as soon as they come out from the womb at hospital.
