If U can speak up, thats cool but i don\u2019t get why u have 2 start coursing and harassing people who haven\u2019t. YOU DON\u2019T KNOW THEIR PAINS. Was mandela a celebrity b4 he started fighting for his people?<br \/>How can we AFRICANS get out of this massive mess is what we should collectively start seriously tackling.<br \/>Lets all stop pretending that we don\u2019t know we are still seriously mentally enslaved through politics, media and religion.<br \/>We are fighting each other and instead of finding the main solution we are fighting more. Many artist are tired of shouting \u201cAfrica unite\u201d from bob Marley to fela and many other greats till date.<br \/>Xenophobia is unacceptable and we must deal with it from the source.<br \/>If u get mouth use am.
