All these African presidents who are selling their peoples land are missing the very common intelligence and the ability to understand the importance of assisting their own people for the country development. Their people are the only true assets for the country development. they don't have any true direction of their own, and are being used by westerners.Ignorant, is the major destruction of development.they are being pushed left ant wright.No voice, no intelligent, no pride. It should be illegal.
