    Lumumba should stop hopping the continent and making long-winded speeches.
    Inspiring and fun to listen to, but our leaders are totally baked into corruption, so his messages are not going to turn everyone into a Traore. He s ...

    Difficult to teach old dogs new tricks. Typical highly Corrupt and indiscipline Africans, always trying to hold on to bad tradition. Why are African political & traditional leaders always the last to come to programmes?

    @Pelicles
    The short man would come late at events, carrying his chair in a SUV, and telling chiefs to stand up, but you had no issues with that.

  • AyyBeeCee 1 week ago

    Couldn't they have announced the governor's presence after Lumumba's speech? He was right to walk off stage.
    No one should come here and say two wrongs don't make a right. Tell me, where is the second wrong?

    African leaders are just interested in the positions they occupy and the privileges that come with them, after the end of their tenure they steal all the people's money and leave them poorer than they came to meet them.

    Read the article well. He didn't act because the governor was late but because he was asked to pause his speech for a late comer to be ushered in, not chastised. He refused to be part of that process, and we support him

    The governor should just walk into the lecturer, sit down quietly and listen to what he has not missed. Later he will be announced l=when the lecture is over.
