I for one, will never blame the west for their interference in other nation's problems especially Africa who cannot still stood on their own legs to join together to be heard loud and clear that enough is enough for the unfairly mistreatment of our resources and people but lingering on the so called charity and loans which are stolen from us and given back to us as loan
 
We are talking of the problems of the interference of the west but never the solutions to stopping the crises without the interference of the west. I will be dancing and jubilating after been suffocated by my own people for that long without seeing an end till a white person comes alone to rescue me. 
 
What should be done regarding to dictators who are suffocating the people that put them to the position? Is there other solution than sanctioning the regime?  What will the African leaders do instead? In cases of draught and poverty, without the help of the west, what have the African leaders did to ease the pains?  How many war have been singlehandedly dissolved by the Africans leaders? Besides, if I am the eye of a blind man, I will of course turn some of his riches to my advantage.
 
Why can't we open our eyes and stop blaming the colonial era? We are now in a new era of independence and should act like one by coming together and say no to the western dominance to our internal problems by uniting the continent and her people regardless of tribes or ethnic differences but as one continent and people with one objective. One of the reasons deterring the unification is the western influence to our internal politics and this will carry on till we African can open our eyes to pave the way to our own future without depending on the help from the west. If the west are following their own interest what keep the African leader from following suit, if they are vulnerable to the influence as they seems to, why can’t they try to create a power that can help them to escape that vulnerability? Action speaks louder than words; let us stop talking the talk and start walking the talk.
Good night
Edi
