I think the sad stroy of Africans dying as they are being deported is a result of social and ploitical distorntions. The west thrives on the distorted notion that Africans have of a lnd of prosperity which it is not fully is.

Us in Africa we also thrive on this distortion either to keep people powerless and blame others for our failures but also because we have failed to marshal the inner energy to take concrete steps in building societies that take our citzens as the centre pieces.

In Israle, the whole country goes to war because Hesbollah has kidnapped one soldier. In Uganda not even one askari resigns when 20 kids die in a scholl fire in Buddo. Who cares if one illegal Ugandan dies aboard any plane? suffice that he may have lived illegally in the EU name it country for over 20 years and ammased plenty of wealth that he is forced to abandon just like that.

Human rights seem to be a mirrage!
