Reparations
Generally good show but a stupid recent guest, a black “British” woman asking for reparations, she completely dodged the fact that the Africans themselves enslaved and sold other Africans to the Europeans, we already paid you for the slaves when you sold them to us we’re not paying you again so stop being greedy, it’s not our fault you squandered the wealth, also she had nothing good to say about the UK (she could have mentioned the fact we eradicated slavery, an act which many African people hated us for and even declared war on us for forcing them to stop enslaving people), if she loves Ghana so much then maybe go live there instead, when will Africans apologise for their empires? When will Africa (Morocco) apologise for its 700 year colonisation of Spain and Portugal and give them reparations? Maybe if they weren’t so corrupt they’d actually have some decent countries there. Any money given to Africa would just end up in the corrupt African elite’s Swiss bank accounts anyway.

More reviews of Focus on Africa
A lot of people listen to the news of the world irrespective of where on Earth it is. Thus, using the word “us” is uncalled for.

Very good real time updates for us in the diaspora

I've been listening for 5 years, it's my favorite source of news about the continent. Charasmatic corespondents and a range of pieces. They really capture the scope of Africa.Read full review »
