Seriously, I haven't witnessed something of this magnitude. They one time I got caught up in a similar chaos was during 2011 election but the police evacuated us. And I vowed never to go to the north again!

Bros I dey feel you die! Abeg nothing do you.


I hear you! Just trying to put matters in proper perspective.



It's not africans who are at fault, it's their government, for not helping them enough. I suppose if Nelson Mandella keeps falling ill, then no wonder he can hardly get anything done. Maybe I should ship him some anti-biotics over. At least then he'd be able to get things in order :)


Mandela is only 1person,and only for the Republic of South Africa!! Not beyond....and he's pretty old,no type of anti-biotic can bring back his youth!!

Btw,
Its some countries in Africa that are poorly governed,not all of it!!


...And Mandela is no longer president of South Africa.
Some African governments really don't help their citizens at all. IMF/World Bank policies which they are induced to follow are not aimed at the welfare of Africans. Rather, the policies ensure that Africa continues to be a producer of raw materials and a ready market for western goods and services. African leaders who don't comply, risk the fate of Gaddafi or are maligned and ostracised like Mugabe.

However, that shouldn't stop the delivery of our jet or the flow of our champagne. We've got to be in the good books of Uncle Sam and his friends, you know.

Amen to that! Bubbly it is-and i know the guests who flock for black gold will never stop!


And the idea of ''take all the hooks,rods and nets,then give them some fish back,from their own lake'' will continue to eternity!

Soooooo,
Champagne it is!

Looks like the caribbean.

Wow! Indian ocean.
The sea looks calm.
Would love to visit Madagascar and Port-Elizabeth in SA.
We have lots of beaches in Nigeria. The rough part of the atlantic.
In one inland town, there's an artificial beach on a river bank where it traverses a hotel and people enjoy it.


Looking forward to some...

aaaaaaawwwww

PE??? NOT CapeTown?? Durban?? I find Port Elizabeth a bit slower than the other two.... But,none the less-SAND/Ocean!!

Ha ha ha aaa......
Madagascar?? No Maurtius?? Zanzibar??
Africa is such a heaven,but,one can only know this if they go out and actually see it!!


Uganda may not have the beaches,BUT,we have the BEST weather in the whole world-i mean,THE WHOLE WORLD!!

No brag!

Heeeeey,
Throw some kola nut and jelof my way....

Clink the flutes!

Jelof, yes. Kolanut is for elders. I won't let you grow old any faster.
Did I mention that I am a great cook?

PE - You tend to live a better life in small towns or the suburbs. The air is cleaner, the grass is greener and life is slower. Enough space and time for cycling, swimming and enjoying life.
Hustle and bustle of city life is not for me. I am old already, I've got nothing to prove.

Uganda - Well, I am checking it out now. One thing I love about your country is that you don't condone homosexuality. One would feel safe to go to a bar without being solicited by other men.

Slower than a baby tortoise!!

Want caffeine? Try Ugandan coffee.

You are not old. You are still a chick by all standards.

The drawback of Pretoria is that there's no sea. But I wouldn't really fancy ever swimming with the fishes. (No pun intended)

True, as you say; Ugandan weather is super...and good for cycling. Tempting...

$#@t happens everywhere, but it is better kept out of sight.

Coffee and Champagne will not get you a hangover. Add Nigerian Suya (Well spiced roasted meat - kebab style) and...

Chick means you are young and delicate. You're definitely no cougar. Grey hairs? Will only make you more distinguished if a man's eyes sees them at all.
...and it was meant to be a compliment.
