It pains me to say but after the murderous inter-tribal riots in Kenya, the lying and thieving in Sth Africa especially (read Semenya and Chuene et al), the bumbling leadership (Diack of Senegal), and just the downright brutality of behaviour by administrators in Nigeria then Africa remains The Dark Continent where ignorance and incompetence are worn like badges of honour by those who hold the reins of power. These people disgust me.
