I have been a member of Mwananchi for very many years, if you remember where we
are coming from, many members left this forum but I stayed for a simple fact
that we must stand and fight for Africa. But my stay has also made one point
very clear, that Mwananchi is actually built to be anti Africa, and to be used
to fight for the whites that want to grab our resources. And allow me to give
some examples here.
1) Did you know that apart from Chifu Wa Malindi, most of the moderators of
Mwanachi are white?
2) Africa is a continent with the most nations, so with that we have the most
differences and problems, have you recognized that the only nation discussed in
Mwananchi is Zimbabwe? Do you know why? Because Mugabe took the lands from the
whites, and since the whites are the moderators of this forum, they have to
fight for their owns, so they get a few of confused Africans and use their
forum to fight for their agenda.
3) If the land of Zimbabwe is given back to the whites today, what topic will
be discussed in Mwananchi? Think about that.
4) There are those of you that can think that actually Africa does not have
serious issues to be discussed, and I defer, for example of late we have a
recreation of the East African Community, where by Museveni has used the Kenyan
situation to push Rwanda and Burundi into the new community with out debating
it into the EAC parliament. For the parliament is not currently sitting. If an
introduction of two new nations into an EAC are not worth to be discussed into
Mwananchi what is? On record I posted three pieces on that issue and all the
three were moderated by Caroline.
5) Instead of using this forum as a productive African forum, it has become a
well organized attack base of our continent, for example, if you look through
the postings that have been made from last Sunday to tonight (my time) Pat
Anderson alone has posted 16 postings about Zimbabwe, with comments like
Zimbabwe is going to collapse in six months, Mugaabe must be killed, Zimbabwe's
economy must collapse in next week, or the Zimbabwean government is on way out
this week. I took it on my mind to post some good things that have happened in
Zimbabwe, and they are many for Zimbabwe is more than the taking of land from
the whites, since last Sunday I have posted 5 positive things about Zimbabwe
and 3 were moderated by Caroline, one was moderated by Chifu Wa Malindi and the
last one was not moderated.
4) You need to understand that the only postings allowed to be posted un
moderated on Mwananchi must be anti Zimbabwe or anti Africa. Every single
posting about FMG has been posted un moderated. And since I know this one will
be moderated as well that is why I have to copy it to every one and cross post
it, for facts must always be told.
Although whites have taken over this forum to push their agenda in Zimbabwe one
must wonder why and how Chifu Wa Malindi an African himself, decided to get
drown this deep. For to have Chifu today as an African Moderator, one might as
well do better with Eddie Cross.
May God save Africa.

MUTILATION: And the Girl DIED.
There must be something to talk about Africa at any given time. Yet, they are
not leaving Africa alone. They are glued to her resources like mad. Heaven have
mercy. The original name for this practice as far as I can remember is
circumcision but now they have advanced it to FMG because it is about Africa.
Mutilation has to be barbaric in a way telling Africans that they are
barbarians when the last barbarian lived in Europe.
It is a shame that you see some Africans parroting some of these
psychological warfare against them.
I think there are many other things happening in Nigeria than calling the
first lady to devote her time to this nonsensical stuff. The media is out there
to educate the masses, the schools are there so why do you need international
support?
Shaking my head - Some Africans and their Euro handlers could be very sick.

Like I said here we go. six whole years we are tilting this very same topic
and we will continue. to do so. Now when you go to a Kent street and ask a
neighbor what is Africa the answer will come back it is a continent which has a
culture of FMG.

Lanre,
thank you for your personal comments on this important matter, I say
important because if myself or Caroline as Europeans comment, certain
members here protest. I hope First Lady, Hajia Turai Yaradua does
start a campaign against FGM, you are right, young girls should not
have to undergo this practice. By the way, I was in Sokoto for two
years.
Patricia.
