The Coconut Republic of Eritrea is KAPUT. It was built upon war mongering, lies, deceit, extortion and foreign debt delinquency. The regime lied to its people about state of economy, its involvement in the war in Yemen, etc. econ.st/2YJIFP0

I have been battling them. They hit me and I hit them back. It has been butu butu buga buga bazooka brutal. They assassinate critics of the regime. EDUCATED Barbarians! We are collecting their names. One day they will be asked some questions

I wouldn’t make such a comparison; it would be inappropriate and misleading. A stateless has no political leaders or centralized authority and gov’t. it does not mean chaos and insecurity reign, Instead, customary LAW reign supreme

It is estimated that South Africa will become a FAILED state by 2030. Too much corruption and incompetence. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

This is why Africa does not progress because of intellectual barbarism! You are silenced if you do not agree with government policy

I do not like military dictators and no one should forgive them give them what they have done to Africa. All the collapsed. states were ruin by military dictators.

He should be HANGED. Same story: we struggle very hard to remove one cockroach from power and the next rat comes to do the same thing! Conde, Ouattara, Gbagbo. Museveni, etc

Some of the democratic countries are themselves lost. Witness the US.. Which democratic country has the US sent to aid you to help democratize? Which countries?

Nick Hedley George Ayittey has done us favour, back in 1992 already in his book Africa Betrayed, in explaining what's happening to the ANC. I'd always viewed political situation of our country from that prism. I'd always hoped that we would bunk the trend that befell fellow African states. Sadly.
