Surely, yesterday's lecture was of great importance for an introspection of
how African leaders conduct themselves in polarising the very Africa we should
be proud of.
We learnt yesterday that some African states do not have enough budgets to run
n deliver services thus rely on financial aid from western countries. This
compromise the independence of these countries and submit to the western
European and North American countries.
A lot needs to be done to rescue Africa from post colonial conflict, financial
crises, political instability and insecurity. Our leaders should always be
reminded of where Africa came from and how we should have conquered this world
if colonialism never reigned in Africa.

Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] Libya war
Comrade Thabo Mbeki in yesterday the 25 May an African day raised a very
important issue, in which all of us as Africans we need to start asking
ourselves this questions. Are we unable to solve our challenges in particular
political challenges. Each & every time when we have political challenges in
our countries we run to western countries for solutions.
Is AU undermined by western countries in the way in which we run our African
affairs. Is western countries saying that Black man is incapable of solving his
own challenges only white man knows the right and wrong, protecting the rights
of citizens, champion of democracy etc.
Is not this colonialisation of African countries again by western countries in
the name of human rights and democracy and where is the AU in all of this. Why
do we keep quite when people are being killed by NATO in Libya. Are we afraid
to raise our issues with the west, and if that's true is Africa being managed
by the west.
Another example is in Zimbabwe where Tsvangarai felt that its better for him to
sue Robert Mugabe in Britain and America for sanction to force Mugabe to step
down, why he didn't run to AU for help.
The AU has come with a solution to resolve issues of Libya but the Western
think otherwise that fine you are right with what you are suggesting but we are
not going to follow your resolutions we have our own way to resolve issues like
this shoot to kill Gadaffi must go. Let's wake up, and solve our own challenges
in an African way, peacefully, because what western want to do is to give us
guns to kill our brothers and sisters, they don't want to see a peaceful
Africa.
