The continent of Africa has once again proven that it’s just as corrupt as ever. Just hours after taking office again (‘taking’ in the literal sense) Robert Mugabe traveled to the African Union Summit in Sharm el-Sheikh where he should have been shunned.
Instead he was hugged and kissed warmly by his fellow African dictators and treated like a hero. Only veiled references to the violence, intimidation, and murder, that has gripped Zimbabwe in the wake of Mugabe’s power grab were made.
Until African nations begin to take a stand against corruption and bloodshed and demand democracy and diplomacy, the continent of Africa will remain a place synanamous with poverty and misery.
