You know, i live in an african country. I did not go the site, because, really, no offense, we are really so sick and tired to hear and see everything about africa,s poverty. I know this sounds rude, so please do not get me wrong, but you have no idea what really goes on there. People are so fast to talk abot this and that in africa, but come and live here for a week. You will see the real africa. Why do you think everybody is so concerned about africa all of a sudden? Anyplace in this whole wide world has their poor countries and villages. Most of those people actually prefer to live like that. Believe me. Been there. Done that. Do not let these people play on your feelings. I will understand if you do not respond. Again, no offense or rudeness intended, but try to see this from our other african,s point of view.

Yes it is. i did no take any offense, but really if you could see it in real life, you will be surprised. Almost all our african countries have the same problems. As do the whole wide world. Let us rather drop this subject. I do not want to ruin your day. Have a nice day.

I think Africa will be forever poor if we don't educate them to manage their land efficiently. Children are dying in Africa because of hunger and wars. The best way to combat this kind of environment is via education.
