If it had not been for the West, all wealth would still have been under African soil today, with no solution as yet on how to get it out.

"...Only then can we address it."

The thing is, it isn't a secret anymore and it has come out a long time ago, and now we have a Zondo Commission where willing witnesses are openly giving their testimonies. The question is, when are you going to address it and do you actually plan to remedy corruption?

You do know that Africa doesn't contain unobtanium that is unique to the continent.

maybe send a memo to the people busy raping the Congo

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) was responsible for around 90% of the world’s cobalt production in 2018,

and the last time I checked most of the PGM metals comes from Africa too

Truth of the matter is that Africa continues to sell it's soul for the latest shiny gadgets every single day and expects the world to feel sorry for the bad decisions made by every single person in power. It's a never ending cycle of ineptitude and corruption. Africa must take some blame at some point for making the wrong choice, every single time.
Taking blame, is the same as admitting failure. Its simply not done in their kulchture

The interviewer should have asked her, as a closing question, whether she has a valid driver licence to drive her ‘Mercedes’?

That's right Baleka - baleka from the truth and reality.
Blame the "whites" for crime (and everything else) - no "blacks" ever committed any crimes before the "whites" came along.

I read the headline and thought, yeah, well, Europeans brought their legal system to our shores. Something is a crime when a law is broken. If there are no laws, there are no crimes. Ergo, Europeans are responsible for the high crime rates.

why can she not be accused of racism here?
one thing I never understood here.

saying something terrible about Europeans is the very definition of racism, or can Black people NEVER be Racist, no matter what they say?
