The Fish Rots from its Head

Writing in Kenya's The Standard in the wake of the African Opportunity Growth Act (Agoa) summit, Barrack Muluga, a publishing editor and media consultant, mulls how "greedy and visionless leadership" has prevented his country from living up to its true potential. The column is not only insightful, but, from Dodoland's perspective, it is refreshing in how irreverently it transcends party politics and challenges status quo.

AGOA is all about US getting oil from Africa and reducing dependency on the Middle East. After Bush Snr & Dick Cheney had drilled the Arab connection, now Barack & Clinton are sent to renew the African root connection avec un parfum de petrole....
