Barack Obama famously said “Africans must build Africa for Africa!”. A nice message, but what do you do, when Africans themselves fight each other while building the same house?

It is not by accident that they all end up coming from the same place within our country, it is a design that we need to undo. The fact is it is done, but the truth is; the entire country doesn’t liked it. The country is tired and annoyed at the same time. It is not too late.

There is this lame justification that many of those that find themselves in very key institutions of our country are exceptionally competent & qualified! It is not by accident that they get to be in those positions, they are simply placed there to further dominance & control.

Oh dear! Lunacy plus sycophantic tendencies cannot be defined any better! So the regime is this broke for its agents to start asking such questions! 😳 twitter.com/angaruka…
