The White genocide-trick: Does Donald Trump hate to visit Africa?

 

Trump's biggest nightmare as president is to visit Africa

It is not necessary to be a psychologist to understand the thoughts of US President Donald Trump. He selects destinations that are significant to him, but not any African nation. There is no evidence that Donald Trump is afraid to travel to Africa, but I have a few points to make that are not required to persuade readers that Trump despises the continent.

 

On February 9, 2025, I wrote an article for ModernGhana News titled "Trump has never been to Africa as President; is it something he plans to do in the future?" In the article, I made it clear that Trump has no interest in the Black Continent because of his disparaging remarks about Africa and its leaders and his mention of "Nambia," a country that doesn't exist.

 

Pictures of his sons, Eric and Donald Trump Jr., with a leopard and other large game kills from the past are available, but none of Donald Trump's trips to African countries during his first four years in office are. This raised the question, "Does he intend to travel to the Black Continent now that he is back at the White House as the 47th president?"

 

In July 2025, Trump declared, "At some point, I would like to go to Africa, absolutely." Strong problem-solving abilities are a hallmark of an effective leader, who approaches problems methodically and imaginatively to guarantee workable solutions in line with expanded observation. Adversity does not dissuade these leaders.

 

Instead, they stay upbeat and concentrate on finding solutions. In my opinion, Donald Trump should have traveled to South Africa to investigate his claims that the country's white Afrikaner minority is being ruthlessly persecuted by the government, including claims of widespread killings and land confiscations.

 

Instead, Trump chose not to attend the G20 Summit in South Africa based on his unfounded allegation of white genocide. The accusation is completely false, and in my opinion, he deliberately created the issue to prevent himself from visiting Africa, and he was successful in doing so.

 

During his first four years in government, Trump has not visited Africa himself, but his wife, Melania, has. What does this signify? Donald Trump will not visit the African continent until he leaves office. Time will tell, and readers will acknowledge this article.

 

Why Mbeki should play a leading role in recharging the African Renaissance agenda

 Former South African president, Thabo Mbeki

It's been more than 10 years since former President Thabo Mbeki was recalled as President of South Africa. This move would lead to weakening Mbeki's position not only on national affairs but on continental affairs as well.

Since Mbeki became the president of Africa's most advanced economy in 1999, he immediately took charge of the renewal of the continent in a more appealing way than any other leader had done, at least in the modern era.

 

It was not long from the time Mbeki ascended to the South African presidency that the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) would convert to become the African Union (AU) in 2002; the whole process was spearheaded by Mbeki.

 

Mbeki would become the first Chairman of the African Union. Many remarks that during Mbeki's reign at the AU, coups ceased to exist on the African continent, and Africa enjoyed more democratic, free, and fair elections.

 

Add to the list Mbeki-led initiatives like the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), which is responsible for the socio-economic development framework for Africa, and the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM), then you have Africa's renewal in motion. Even more powerfully, the African Renaissance was firmly in place to produce, as Mbeki is fond of exclaiming, 'Africa's Rebirth'.

 

Mbeki's legacy remains part of our culture and possibly the long-term future. His capacity in planning, organizing, strategy, and tactics led to a commodity boom on a scale unprecedented in SA. Under his reign, South Africa's economy grew by 5%.

 

At some stage, the country's economic growth had reached the 6% mark. Jobs were created in the middle sectors due to this growth.

 

And the Mbeki-inspired Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) has led to many jobs in Black areas of South Africa. The fall of Mbeki from political power could be described as the end of the African Renaissance philosophy.

 

Although there are still institutions and projects that are meant to carry forward the program of 'Africa's Rebirth'. The spark of the African Renaissance mission disappeared with the recall of Mbeki as South Africa's second democratically elected president.

 

Much was lacking in the articulation of the philosophy from Mbeki's office as the president of South Africa, I would argue. Although Mbeki succeeded in promoting the concept of an African Renaissance, there's a lack of understanding as to the nitty-gritty of the philosophy, so that the various sectors that form Africa are daily implementing the programs and projects of renewing Africa.

 

In its essence, the African Renaissance is the concept that the African people shall overcome the current challenges confronting the continent and achieve cultural, scientific, and economic renewal. First articulated by Senegalese historian Cheikh Anta Diop in a series of essays he wrote between 1946 and 1960.

 

And later collected to produce a book titled Towards the African Renaissance: Essays in Culture and Development, 1946–1960. Diop had written this series of essays on charting the development of Africa as a student in Paris.

 

Diop's ideas were further popularized by Mbeki during his tenure when he was South Africa's Deputy President. Today, the African Renaissance has been pinned more largely as a philosophical and political movement to end the violence, elitism, corruption, and poverty believed to plague the continent and to replace them with a more just and equitable order.

 

Mbeki proposes achieving these goals by primarily encouraging education and reversing the "brain drain" of African intellectuals to foreign lands; hence, the African Renaissance is meant to play a key role in South Africa's post-apartheid intellectual agenda.

 

Mbeki further encouraged Africans to take pride in their heritage and to take charge of their lives, rather than depending on outside factors to be able to re-create their destiny. However, according to Noel Moukala, the African Renaissance cannot exist without first achieving African Unity.

 

Professor W.A.J. Okumu compiled a list of perceived African traits that he believes are worthy of preservation and continuation.

 

These include aspects of interpersonal relations, such as "social inclusion, hospitality, and generous sharing," as well as attentive and perceptive listening. He additionally argues that social acceptance is not based on wealth, but on relationships with others.

 

Okumu's perspective perfectly joins the African Renaissance with the philosophy of Ubuntu/Botho, which is about 'Humanity Towards Others'.

 

When giving his famous "I Am an African" speech in Cape Town, celebrating the adoption of a new Constitution of South Africa in Parliament on May 8, 1996, Mbeki said: “I am born of a people who are heroes and heroines.

 

With patient because history is on their side, these masses do not despair because today the weather is bad. Nor do they turn triumphalist when, tomorrow, the sun shines.

 

Whatever the circumstances they have lived through and because of that experience, they are determined to define for themselves who they are and who they should be.”

 

This was followed by the April 1997 Mbeki articulation on the elements that comprise the African Renaissance, which include social cohesion, democracy, economic rebuilding and growth, and the establishment of Africa as a significant player in geopolitical affairs.

 

Vusi Mavimbela, an advisor to Mbeki, two months later, wrote that the African Renaissance was the "third moment" in post-colonial Africa, following decolonization and the spread of democracy across the continent in the early 1990s.

 

Later on, Mbeki would codify Mavimbela's beliefs and the reforms that would comprise them in the "African Renaissance Statement" given on August 13, 1998.

 

All this would culminate in the African Renaissance Conference in Johannesburg in 1998, where 470 participants attended. And in 1999, the book titled African Renaissance was released, with 30 essays arranged under topics corresponding to the conference's breakout sessions: "culture and education, economic transformation, science and technology, transport and energy, moral renewal and African values, and media and telecommunications.

 

It needs to be mentioned that in the field of technology, this area needs close monitoring, as in many instances it has led to replacing people's jobs with machines. A strong stance needs to be made in ensuring that only technology that creates more jobs and improves people's lives will form part of our fabric.

 

And in Pretoria on October 11, 1999, Mbeki then led the formation of the African Renaissance Institute (ARI, with its initial focus on the development of African human resources, science and technology, agriculture, nutrition and health, culture, business, peace, and good governance.

 

In his book The African Renaissance, Okumu wrote that "The most important and primary role of the African Renaissance Institute now and in the coming years is to gather a critical mass of first-class African scientists and to give them large enough grants continuingly, as well as sufficient infrastructure, to enable them to undertake meaningful problem-solving R&D applied to industrial production that will lead to really important results of economic dimensions."

 

Various analysts still credit much of this growth to the increase of employment in the middle sectors, which, up until Mbeki's tenure, was difficult to come by. Commenting generally on Mbeki's leadership and vision, Khisimusi Sipho wrote: "Going through former president Thabo Mbeki's 2007 political report at Polokwane, he said nothing but the vicious truth.

 

Our anger, impatience & frustration engulfed many of us that we couldn't listen to him properly at that time. "The distinguished African scholar Professor Patrick Loch Otieno Lumumba remarked, "Thabo Mbeki should have been afforded more time to lead because he had a clear direction as to where South Africa and Africa should go, South Africa lost a man in him."

 

Mbeki's vision and his pioneering of an African Renaissance led to the successful bid to host the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In acknowledging Mbeki's contribution, Business Day newspaper said in its editorial opinion, "The fact is that it was the former president's vision of an African renaissance, with South Africa leading the charge to prove to the rest of the world that the continent was not destined to disappoint in perpetuity, that resulted in us persisting in our bid to host the tournament."

 

Another newspaper, The Citizen, commented: "Now we know he was correct in that assessment of South Africa's ability to stage the greatest show on earth." Africa must look at the possibility of allowing Mbeki to contribute to the renewal of the continent's fortunes.

 

Furthermore, the African Renaissance is now part of the International Decade for People of African Descent from 2015 to 2024, in which the Door of Return Initiative seeks to bring members of the African Diaspora back to the continent.

 

This initiative is spearheaded by the historical Maroon community of Accompong, Jamaica, in cooperation with Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and Ghana. The associated Renaissance revival is led by Accompong Finance Minister Timothy E. McPherson Jr., and Nigeria's Senior Special Assistant to the President on Diaspora and Foreign Affairs, Abike Dabiri.

 

That should make us wonder why Mbeki's predecessors in South Africa have turned to the African Renaissance philosophy, including Mbeki's successors, too. Continent, figures associated with the African Renaissance are President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda, President Paul Kagame of Rwanda, and President Emmerson Mnangagwa of Zimbabwe.

 

What about the others, and what about the men and women on the African streets? The promotion of African literature and promoting the stories of the forgotten heroes & heroines of the Liberation Struggle publicly and in our schools, colleges, and universities to decolonize the mind would be a good start.

 

And building Public Participation in communities, governmental, AU structures, programs, and projects will strengthen Africa's case that we are serious about making the 21st century an African Century.

Hell Break Loose As Looters Go On The Rampage In South Africa

Looters on the rampage in South Africa

Shocking images of smashed windows, destroyed metal security doors, and stores stripped of anything worth stealing have gripped South Africa.

 

Uniformed police officers have stood by as looters made off with boxes of stolen goods, and small store owners were left picking through the wreckage of their businesses. Videos of people showing off looted items have streamed alongside shots of the army patrolling the streets.

 

Numbers give only an indicator of the damage to South Africa over the last few days. Over 70 are dead, more than 1,200 have been arrested for looting, and at least 200 shopping malls across the Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal provinces were ransacked.

 

Those provinces include the major cities of Pretoria, Johannesburg, and Durban. The full economic cost of the unrest is yet to be counted, but eThekwini Mayor Mxolisi Kaunda in KwaZulu-Natal told reporters more than 15 billion rand (about $1 billion/€875 million) worth of property and equipment had been damaged, affecting 40,000 businesses.

 

COVID- 19 vaccine centers were forced to close in affected areas, and clinics and pharmacies were not spared in the looting either.

 

A South African caught on video instigating violence against white people

According to the media, angry Zuma fans started the violence and looting after Zuma was sentenced, but that’s not the case.

 

Frustrated, angry, unemployed South Africans always seek an opportunity to steal, and Zuma’s sentence was a perfect time. Years after the fall of apartheid, the impact is still visible.

 

The whites own the best and live rich, while the poor wallow in poverty amidst the unemployment crisis.

Racism: A Serious Problem Dividing People And Destroying Communities

Racial protest in America

Very often, if the word racism is mentioned, the idea that comes to mind is white people hating black people. That's true; however, we have black people who hate white people, too, and black people who hate other black people. 

The latter is one of the biggest issues in the United States of America, often leading to violence in black communities. There are thousands of cases involving blacks killing blacks in the United States of America, but such cases are not given enough attention in America until the whites killing blacks changed things today, through the 'Black Lives Matter' movement.

 

Even in Africa, especially, South Africa, there is still racism, despite the number of years that have passed since the fall of Apartheid, because the white community that has taken over black properties, including land, feels superior. Till now, many regret the fall of Apartheid since they consider black people inferior in their own country.

In almost every African country, tribalism reigns, as citizens or indigenous people hate others because they come from different clans, tribes, or villages. For example, in Ghana, an Ashanti can hate a Fanti, Ga, or Hausa, just because they come from different regions, just like how in Nigeria, a Yoruba hates an Igbo man, or the Mende hating Creole in Sierra Leone.  Tribalism and nepotism are some of the biggest problems in Africa.

 

Power corrupts a person, as well as the mind; therefore, to gain power over others and to dominate others, those who have the power take it as an opportunity to rise above other poor and vulnerable people. That might be one of the reasons slavery probably came about, because Africa was and still is one of the least undeveloped and weakest continents in the world. Even though the US didn't colonize any African country, its allies in Western Europe decimated and brutalized Africa.

 

If actually, we actually need to discuss slavery, it will be incomplete to name racism as the main source leading to that. There is more to slavery than dwells on the natural potentials of Africa, ranging from gold, diamonds, tin, cobalt, manganese, bauxite, and other precious minerals found in African soil. Those pure natural resources have become the curse of Africa from the time of slavery, colonialism, Apartheid, to the deliberate infection of diseases on the continent today.

As a matter of fact, no organization or person can fight racism and discrimination in our society today, but it can be reduced. But one thing racists and white supremacists must first understand is that nobody lives forever. Everyone will die and leave this world. So what is the significance of hating someone or claiming you are superior to him when all of you will leave this world in your graves?

Another point is when the rain falls, hardly does it fall on one man's house; everyone's house becomes wet. Therefore, those interested in violence and supporting racism will have a taste of their own handiwork if violence breaks out in our communities. They will feel the impact of destruction and death in their homes.

For peace, security, and the future of our children, we need to bury racism and discrimination and create a friendly, healthy, and peaceful environment through integration and the diversity of culture, for the next generation. 

That's the only way their time will be different from ours because we have witnessed too much violence, bloodshed, and death that we are no longer interested in seeing any more.

The Transmission Of Cryptosporidia In Dried Milk From America

Dried milk contaminated with cryptosporidia virus were shipped from the USA to Cuba, Costa Rica, Liberia, Congo, Uganda, Haiti and South Africa.

The USA is a country that has an enormous appetite to destroy others. Yet, they can't stand the pain and destruction they deliberately inflict on others, especially in the third world.

In Haiti, in 1981, the protozoan had not appeared yet, but 21 out of 144 children under six months were affected by cryptosporidiosis in 1986. 

 

19 out of 21 had been given the dried milk, and only two children were breastfed. In the same year, it affected kindergartens in Cuba.

 

In Costa Rica, the children who went down were those fed with the dried milk. The creature had already reared its head in 1983 in Liberia and infected 5.9% of all children. A precondition for their contact with the agent had been dried-milk feeds and living in a non-Islamic (i.e., mainly Christian) environment.

In Kigali, Rwanda, 10% of those children included in a study in 1983/1984 were suffering from diarrhea by Cryptosporidia, whilst the rate in Kampala, Uganda, was 25%. The agents must have been transmitted in food, to a certain extent at least.

Their appearance was described especially in the USA kindergartens in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, California, New Mexico, and Florida. Wherever they appeared, children were infected in particular. For South Africa, with the cooperation of a military officer, it was maintained in 1981 that Cryptosporidia occurred among calves.

From 1985, Cryptosporidium infections were then also reported among Black South African children. This information, especially from Natal in South Africa, leads one to conclude that Cryptosporidia infections were systematically spread. In 1977, 1980, and 1983, for example, no such agents were found there.  

In Haiti, cryptosporidiosis occurred in 46% of AIDS patients; in the USA, it occurred in 3.3%; in Kinshasa, Congo, it occurred in 8%; andamong the diarrhea-AIDS patients in the Mama Yemo Hospital, it occurred in 30%. In Uganda, it occurred in 48% of slim-disease patients, and in Zambia, among 35% of AIDS patients.

 

The advanced countries that want the world to feel their strength and power as superpower countries can’t even stand the pain and suffering they have deliberately inflicted on the poor, innocent, and vulnerable people. 

Americans today, including the Democrats, accused Trump of being responsible for thousands of deaths by a coronavirus in the country. Yet, nobody did a damn thing about the suffering America has put people through. The USA is a country that has an enormous appetite to destroy others, yet they can't stand the pain and destruction they inflict on others.

 

Once in a while you will have a taste of your own medicine; therefore, COVID-19has definitely brought an understanding to the US government, the world, and the common people of the carnage the US government has caused around the world, and now they are receiving the full wages of the evil they planted.

Scooped from the book 'Aids, Origin, Spread, And Healing,' by Dr. Wolff Geisler, one of the co-writers of our health blog, "Secrets Of HIV-Aids And Ebola Facts Journal." 

All such crimes were deliberately done by the US government and covered up for decades, but we are enemies today for exposing them. Yes, invincible forces, including search engine giants, are fighting me and manipulating my blog to suppress information.

However, since the light is stronger than the darkness and nobody can fight the truth, they will meet their own demeanors and swallow their pride.

How Would You Judge This If A Black Man Does To A White Man?

Police opened fire on peaceful demonstrators in Soweto during the Apartheid era

It is not always easy to look straight into the eyes of some white people and accuse them of trying to kill a black man. But if you are bold enough to tell them, they will never accept it and may even call you a mad person.

So, if a white man can go to that extent to commit such horrible crimes against a black man, then what's its significance? Would you describe someone who deliberately commits a serious crime against a black man as a kind person or someone with the intention to kill you?

Below are deliberate medical atrocities by White people against Africans and African-Americans

Dr. Wouter Basson - popularly known as Doctor Death.

South African Doctor death Wouter Basson, who was the personal physician of the then South African Prime Minister P.W. Botha, was an African cardiologist and former head of the country's secret chemical and biological warfare project, “Project Coast”, during the South African Apartheid era. 

He is nicknamed "Dr. Death" by the press for his alleged actions in Apartheid South Africa. Basson was acquitted in 2002 of 67 charges in biological warfare cases, after having been suspended from his military post with full pay in 1999.

At the Special Forces SF Pretoria HQ, Brigadier Wouter Basson, a young military doctor, allegedly provides several operatives, above all Johan Theron, with curare-like agents; later, he gives them ketamine [2-(2-chlorophenyl1)-(methylamino)-(cyclohexanone hydrochloride)], a veterinary anesthetic known in South Africa as Ketelaar.

Theron and others inject these drugs into troublesome Southwest African Peoples Organization (SWAPO) prisoners of war to suffocate them, after which their corpses are dropped into the sea from SADF aircraft. Theron killed at least 200 SWAPO members in this fashion, including five who were first put to sleep with Vesparax pills.

With Basson's help, Theron also uses his own colleagues as test subjects by giving them cans of soft drinks and beer into which "sleeping agents" have been injected with a thin needle.

Dubbed “Dr. Death,” Wouter Basson, also called the “South African Joseph Mengele” by the media, was controversially granted amnesty by the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2002, escaping multiple charges of murder, and the commission administered a pill with a substance to make Black women infertile.

For over 50 years, most foreign mineworkers in South Africa have returned to their home countries after retrenchment or closure of the mines without accessing their social benefits. Malawi is one of the hardest-hit countries, with a population of ex-miners estimated at over 50,000.

Malawian ex-miners didn't have access to social benefits from South Africa, while most of them were used as guinea pigs for Wouter Bassons' “Project Coast” for receiving biowarfare microorganisms.

Not only have several nosocomial infection outbreaks occurred in South Africa, but also Marburg/Ebola virus disease (MVD) in Johannesburg in 1975. 

Some years later, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever CCHF occurred near Cape Town in 1984, and Ebola virus disease in Johannesburg in 1996, different names for the same virus, which are genetically identical, ended up in blacks.

British Dr. Wilson Carswell's crime in Uganda and South Africa

Dr. Wilson Carlwell, the criminal who escaped from the hands of the Ugandan government and continued his deliberate AIDS infection in South Africa

 

From 1989 to 1990, 1,558,800 batches of tuberculosis vaccine from the Pasteur Institute were administered to Ugandan children, resulting in diarrhea, vomiting, cough, swollen lymph nodes in the armpit and on the neck, stunted growth, crippling, and death.

Dr. Carlswell was then in Uganda when 'The Weekly Topic' newspaper accused CIA agents disguised as scientists and journalists of spreading lies about the origins of the AIDS virus. 

The Ugandan government should expel the so-called experts. Shortly afterward, unknown people ransacked the house of Wilson Carswell, the leading AIDS-research scientist in Uganda, and destroyed his computer together with all the AIDS files after the government discovered his role in the deliberate infection of the Ugandan population with the disease.

Dr. Wilson Carswell, then a member of the British armed forces, escaped with his life. After a short stay with his commissioners in Porton Down, Great Britain, he was able to start up again as head of the Aids unit of the Department of National Health and Population Development in South Africa and continued his deliberate spread of AIDS. Today, South Africa has the highest HIV/AIDS rate in the world.

After completing his medical crimes, he thinks nobody knows about it; he wants the world to recognize him as a great person, so he, therefore, featured this in WIKIPEDIA.

John Wilson Carswell OBE FRCS (born 1937) is a Scottish physician who was one of the first medical researchers to identify HIV/AIDS in Uganda.

He graduated from King's College London with an MBBS in 1961 and was elected a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 1967. He worked as a consultant surgeon at Mulago Hospital, Kampala, from 1968 to 1987, where he became a leading AIDS researcher in the country.

He later served as medical advisor to the Government of South Africa and worked in public health in the United States and Asia.

His experiences in Uganda, where he met Idi Amin, were an inspiration for the character Dr. Garrigan in Giles Foden's novel The Last King of Scotland. His son was the first elected UK Independence Party Member of Parliament, Douglas Carswell.

 

Medical Crimes Against African-Americans in America

The deliberate infection of African Americans with diseases

From 1932 to 1972, the USA Public Health Service carried out a study entitled "Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Male Negro in Macon County," involving 400 dark-skinned men (African Americans) suffering from syphilis, who were deceived into believing that they were receiving effective treatment.

The disease and death of these men were carefully studied. 15 years later, the knowledge from this study was used. From 1986 to 1989, the number of Blacks in the USA suffering from syphilis increased by 132%, while the number of White Americans dropped by 69%. 

The infections of the African-Americans cannot have occurred as a result of sexual intercourse, since at the same time, there was a 23% drop in the rate of gonorrhea, which is sexually transmitted. This reduction in numbers cannot be attributed to a new medication. 

It, therefore, proves a reduction in the sexual spread of agents that can be sexually transmitted. The increased rate of syphilis infections among African-Americans was triggered by other methods. 

The syphilis agents that were spread affect the brain at an earlier stage and are particularly resistant to penicillin, compared with the hitherto existing syphilis agent.

SOUTH AFRICA BATTLING CORONAVIRUS AND HIV-AIDS AT THE SAME TIME AFTER APARTHEID

Tireless efforts of the South African government in its fight against the coronavirus

In a country still recovering from physical and psychological scars of Apartheid, and also hit hard by a high crime rate and the spread of other diseases such as tuberculosis and AIDS, South Africa is now under the attack of coronavirus, which emerged from China last year December.

Decades under the brutal rule of the white minority, the fall of Apartheid in 1990, didn’t bring any significant change in the country, therefore, thousands of South Africans still live in poverty, overcrowded slums, while others are homeless, facing a high rate of unemployment.

South Africa today, has over 7.1 million HIV-positive people in the country, with the arrival of the coronavirus, once again, the country is in a nightmare, threatening Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban, which have serious problems of the virus. 

South Africa has currently registered 16, 433 coronavirus cases and 286 deaths, this is not too alarming compared to the serious situations in other countries in Europe and America. 

However, due to social, ethnic, racial divisions, poverty, and the homeless situation, the country must be very careful. 

ARRESTED WEDDING IN QUARANTINE

The South African police taking away both the bride and the bridegroom for defying the lockdown orders.

The coronavirus has brought sorrow into the world, but not everyone wants this new disease to make them unhappy. Despite the destructive impact of the virus, many think it’s time to tie the knot around the globe.

At a party in the coastal province of KwaZulu-Natal, following a wedding, the police suddenly raced to the scene to arrest the bride and groom, their 50 guests, and the pastor who led the ceremony. The whole wedding company was delivered to the site.

It turned out that before the arrest, the police received a message about the wedding, which shouldn’t have taken place in public due to a nationwide ban on all public gatherings during the pandemic.

The enforcement authorities announced that the newlyweds will spend their honeymoon in strict conditions. The bride and groom, with their entire large retinue, were released on bail. The police will consider a case of violation of the quarantine regime after its completion.

In South Africa, more than 1,749 confirmed cases of coronavirus have been reported, including 13 deaths. Now the country is experiencing the second week of one of the toughest quarantines in the world.

South African law enforcement officers arrest lockdown breakers.

Authorities have banned the purchase of alcohol and cigarettes, and they allowed people to go out only in the most extreme cases.

Meanwhile, the South African authorities have arrested over 17,000 people for defying lockdown.

AFRICAN COUNTRIES CONFIRMED OF COVID - 19, THE CORONAVIRUS

The Ghanaian leader, Akufo-Addo, has taken strict measures in the country to avoid the spread of the coronavirus.

More than 937,000 infections are confirmed in at least 180 countries and territories, including at least 47,000 deaths. However, in Africa, over 146 infections of the coronavirus have now been confirmed, which is very low compared to other continents. 

However, experts warn that an outbreak there could cause a medical disaster due to inadequate healthcare facilities and a fragile health system in Africa. 

In Africa, the coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, has hit, especially, the more touristic countries and countries that are further north or south of the equator. 

Egypt tops the list with 776 cases, with 52 deaths, while Algeria follows with 847 cases, with 58 deaths, and South Africa, 1,380 cases with 5 deaths.

Many patients are travelers arriving or returning from Europe, the US, the Middle East, or Asia. A first case surfaced in Kenya yesterday, a Kenyan who had been to the United States. 

According to Professor Marleen Temmerman, who works at the Nairobi University Hospital in Kenya, it is striking that the virus has not yet spread around Africa. 

"That could be a matter of time," she says, but virologists also point to climatic conditions. The flu virus may not thrive in tropical countries."

Most African countries now have a health plan in place. Some countries have stepped up border controls. For example, in Mali, people coming from risk areas must be kept in isolation for 14 days. Everyone who arrives in the capital, Bamako, is checked for fever. 

Thousands of passengers from China have already been screened in Ethiopia. Addis Abeba is an important hub for international air traffic. 

This morning, Morocco has banned all incoming flights from, among others, Belgium. Sudan has stopped bus traffic with neighboring Egypt after the first death. 

In Rwanda, residents have been banned from shaking hands for a week. In that central African country, however, this is an important ritual, and people often walk hand in hand on the street. 

That is currently not possible, says the government. 

In the Rwandan capital Kigali, there are washbasins with soap at bus stops, restaurants, banks, and shops. The Rwandan newspaper New Times made an informative video about it. (see below and continue reading under video)

THE FORGOTTEN DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP IN AFRICA

African leaders: Have they forgotten their responsibilities as leaders? 

BY ERIC ONYEBUCHI

I begin this article by defining democratic leadership as the government of the people by the people participating in the governance of their territory of given areas. (Thus, in my opinion), the democratic leadership style is a very open and collegial style of running a team. 

Ideas move freely amongst the group and are discussed openly. Everyone is given a seat at the table, and discussion is relatively free-flowing. The democratic leadership style is essentially a mode of leadership that is found in participative management and human resources theory. 

This article will seek to explore the essence of democratic leadership and will, among other things, outline the advantages of democratic leadership, the disadvantages of democratic leadership, and the function of the democratic leadership council and provide democratic leadership. 

The definition of democratic leadership from an organizational standpoint involves the redistribution of authority and power between managers and employees to provide employee involvement in the process of decision making.

This style is needed in dynamic and rapidly changing environments where very little can be taken as a constant. In these fast-moving organizations, every option for improvement has to be considered to keep the group from falling out of date in Africa to keep the continent in order.

The democratic leadership style means facilitating the conversation, encouraging people to share their ideas and then synthesizing all the available information into the best possible decision. The democratic leader must also be able to communicate that decision back to the group to bring unity the plan is chosen. 

In Africa, this is very vital in order to put the region in first-class government so that people of the region will participate fully in leadership and will enable to checkmate corruption more the leaders of Africa nation.

When situations change frequently, democratic leadership offers a great deal of flexibility to adapt to better ways of doing things. Unfortunately, it is also somewhat slow to make a decision in this structure, so while it may embrace newer and better methods; it might not do so very quickly. 

A democratic leadership style can bring the best out of an experienced and professional team. It capitalizes on their skills and talents by letting them share their views, rather than simply expecting them to conform and also it can destroy corruption in Africa leadership.

If a decision is very complex and broad, it is important to have the different areas of expertise represented and contributing input – this is where democratic leader shines and will bring wise men to rule Africa not this milked brain leader that has been used by white corrupt and selfish colonial masters to steal our natural resources to white men land. 

Therefore, if we the African people have good complex and broad leaders in Africa region this corruption in Africa would have been things of the past, Africa will be for what God naturally made it for, Africa by nature is a cultured place where norm and value both respect and sincerity is our nature in our blood corruption is not part of us.

Good fit for Africa Democratic Leadership:

• Creative groups (advertising, design): ideas need to flow in creative environments to find creative new concepts and designs.
• Consulting: when paid to explore problems and find solutions, your role will be to explore the possibilities in-depth, and that means there has to be a great deal of exploration and open discussion.
• 
  
• Much of the Service industry: new ideas allow for more flexibility in changing customer demands.
• 
  
• Education: few places need to be open to different ideas than education, both by educators and their students.

MERIT OF Democratic Leadership:

• 
  
• Creative groups (advertising, design): ideas need to flow in creative environments to find creative new concepts and designs.
• 
  
• Consulting: when paid to explore problems and find solutions, your role will be to explore the possibilities in-depth, and that means there has to be a great deal of exploration and open discussion.
• 
  
• Much of the Service industry: new ideas allow for more flexibility to changing citizens' demands.
• Education: few places need to be open to different ideas than education, both by educators and their students.

How to be effective in this position:

• 
  
• Keep communication open: If the marketplace of ideas is going to be open for business, everyone needs to feel comfortable enough to put their ideas on the table. The democratic leadership style thrives when all the considerations are laid out for everyone to examine.
• 
  
• Focus the discussion: It’s hard to keep an unstructured discussion productive. It’s the leader’s job to balance being open to ideas and keeping everything on-topic. If the conversation begins to stray, to remind everybody of the goals on hand and then steer it back. Make sure to take note of off-topic comments and try to return to them when they are pertinent.
• 
  
• Be ready to commit: In the democratic leadership style, you get presented with so many possibilities and suggestions that it can be overwhelming and difficult to commit. But as the leader, when the time comes, you have to choose and do so with conviction. The team depends on the clear and unambiguous mandates to be committed.
• 
  
• Respect the ideas: You and your team might not agree with every idea, and that’s ok. It is important, however, that you create a healthy environment where those ideas are entertained and considered --not maligned-- or the flow of ideas will slow to a trickle.
• 
  
• Explain, but don’t apologize: You want the advocates of the solutions that were not selected to understand that their thoughts were considered and had validity, but that ultimately you had strong reasons to go a different direction. It’s important that the decision is communicated, but you should not apologize for deciding on what you think is the right decision.

DEMERIT OF DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP

Democratic leadership can sometimes come across as being indecisive, in certain situations, especially during a crisis, leaders must be very directive and democratic leaders do not function well in an authoritarian role, in the midst of a crisis, no time is usually available to address everyone concerned.

The problems of Africa leaders

One of the problems I found out in Africa leaders in the region is the selfishness of our leaders in which many of them want to acquire all the wealth of their nation and also cage their citizens in a mess of poverty, this poverty makes the citizens turn their slave which they used anyhow they want. 

Even during election whether the citizens' vote or not they will still manipulate themselves to the sit or government power, the case of Nigeria 2002. Many other Africa countries are in the same mess as Togo, South Africa, Kenya, Rwanda and so on.

Most Africa leaders are highly corrupt in all areas both monetary and misuse of power while in office and many government establishments are corrupt, for instance, if you look for employment in the government established industries you will not secure it without bribery. 

Sometimes the white leaders team up with corrupt people in Africa to lead Africa nations in order to manipulate Africa resources and invent diseases into Africa. In Nigeria, 2015, ex-president Goodluck Jonathan was a force out office via America cabals, that's the reason Nigeria is in mess now on her economy and other security challenges.

I think African leaders should stop relying on white leaders for the development of the Africa region and use what they have to get any kind of development they want in their nations, it is high time Africa leaders look inward to develop their regions. 

Africa is blessed with human and material resources to develop their regions because development started in Africa, Africans think back because there is a saying in my place that said that if you did not know where you are coming from you will not know where you are going, let Africa leaders practice what they preach to their citizens.

Africans arise and say no to corrupt Africa leaders and let us build a united Africa nation and fight against corruption. Africa leaders have to use Africans to develop Africa because our land is really blessed with human power, resources, and intellectuals to handle Africa's developmental problems both in humans and technologies to derive Africa great.

Africans most stop collecting money before you vote for election so that they will bring good leaders that have their citizens at heart and leaders with lion heart to face the white leaders. We need to establish a union or group that will train young Africans that will take over leadership in the region of Africa.

Africans should look for a way to give scholarships to Africa citizens to study the history of Africa and Africa's oldest style of leadership within Africa universities and outside some country of Africa history. Our thinking toward fellow Africans needed to change their negative attitudes toward each other in spite of where we come from or the tribe we belong in order to achieve collective goals and results.

The negative perception of African leaders needs to change to a better life of Africans as citizens and leaders should truly face leadership trends in the region in order to bring out the best in Africa nations. Black is gold. Black is always brother’s keeper right from history.

One of the problems I found out in Africa leaders in the region is the selfishness of our leaders in which many of them want to acquire all the wealth of their nation and also cage their citizens in a mess of poverty, this poverty make the citizens turn to their slave which they used anyhow they want . please read it now, (it was an error of commission)

 Biography of the writer Eric Onyebuchi

Eric Onyebuchi was born in Lagos State and after his father falls sick, he relocated to a small village called Effium, in Ebonyi State Nigeria on December 6, 1984. He went to community center school from 1991 to1996, after which he attended Effium high school from 1996/97 till 2002.

In 2004, he received his certificate from the National Examination Council (NECO) at Community Secondary School Mbeekeishieke, for his senior school certificate in Ebonyi State.

Although Eric Onyebuchi is a friendly and happy person he became a 'drop-out' of school because his national certificate in 'Business Administration and Management' was withheld due to unpaid school fees. Due to this incident, he didn't get admission into the Federal Polytechnics Oko Anambra State Nigeria.

Notwithstanding, he urgently wants to be admitted, after collection of his certificate, he would like to obtain his Bachelor's on economics so that he will move into politics. That's Eric's dream when he walks on that small community road in Oko Anambra State. 

The road he used to walk on for brainstorming and writing some of his heart warm quotes. Eric is the eldest boy of  two boys from hardworking parents who try to deal with every difficult life with one main goal only; 'To educate their children.'

After his father, who was a factory worker in Lagos, fell sick and lost his work because of his illness, Eric moved to his village.

Through the help of his mother who was a farmer in the village, and the love a mother has for her child Eric had a successful education. 

Eric started some little jobs to enroll in polytechnic. In fact, life wasn't easy for him but his dream to become a Nigerian leader one day to fight corruption never disappeared. His questions are: “Why are African leaders not ready to develop Africa? Again,  “Why corruption became such a criminal part of the politicians' blood?”

Therefore Eric's dream to cope with widespread corruption throughout Africa still stands tall in his heart because of his background. Besides that, can an empty stomach go to war without food?

In 2008, Eric went to work with 'Chinees Facility Company'  in Ikorodu Lagos State, before enrolling in federal polytechnics in Oko Anambra State Nigeria.

At this very moment, he is managing a little business in order to get his national degree in 'Business Administration and Management'. 

Eric Onyebuchi's belief in 'Oneness Forever' never left him. He is convinced that God is black from the beginning and the ultimate fact that civilization started from Africa strengthens him. 

Yes, GOD started His work in Africa, and together with Him, he believes in making Africa great and forever green. His thoughts about the fact that evil white men do not want to see Africa's progress, is at foremost necessary to form a group around African nations in order to work together. 

African nations have to find a way to get together because the 'Oneness of African leaders' will be the ultimate weapon that can and will be used to fight this corruptive African mess without the interference of white rulers.

And Eric Onyebuchi wants to be one of those newborn African leaders. The view of these NEO African leaders has to change Africa towards a prospective life of Africans as world citizens. Leaders should truly face leadership trends in the regions in order to bring out the best to Africa nations. 

Black is gold and Black, with a capital letter, is always brother’s keeper right from history and it isn't a coincidence that GOD started His work in Africa by creating black from the same ultimate beginning of mankind.

Yes, Eric Onyebuchi from Nigeria West Africa is a great and proud son of that spiritual African soil. His belief in himself and what God will use him to do in the world inspires him. Eric never will surrender no matter how tough roads look like, he will fight on. 

It is his goal to make the circle round for the African future of the African youth and bringing the continent to the top of among the continents.
