{UAH} Ocen, WBK//Uhuru raps West over slow Ebola response
Folks;
As he settles into the office, President Uhuru Kenyatta is taking on the characteristics of the old, pathetic African president.
Here, he is castigating the West for their slow response to the Ebola epidemic, in the same fashion that other African presidents routinely blame the West for every ailment that Africa suffers.
What was Africa's own response to Ebola, besides closing borders and banning West African travelers from reaching their capitals? Where is Africa's capacity to assess, let alone, contain any health emergency, including Ebola?
No, Uhuru is perpetuating Africa's decayed leadership by lamenting on how the world responded to Ebola, when he should be at the forefront with ideas to put out this and other fires that bedevil the continent.
He should not expect the West to come to Africa's aid every time we experience emergencies, and then turn around and tell the same West to keep off its hands in the management of Africa's affairs.
Geo-political reality is not buffet table where you pick what you like and leave the rest for others. Someone needs to remind Mr. Kenyatta of this reality, or else it's indeed Not Yet Uhuru even for him.
