It's happening again.
What's that?
The wind of change that is blowing across Africa.
Wind of change? You must be joking.
You are the one joking. You mean you are not aware of the happenings in North Africa?
Tell me story. I’m full of ears.
Sure, why not? The wind of revolution is blowing away sit-tight rulers as it did the remaining colonialists in Africa in the 1980s. Tunisia has fallen. Egypt is falling. Algeria is waiting. The wind is even blowing across the Arabian Peninsula. Yemenis are protesting. Jordanians are complaining too. The Arab world is turned upside down. Things are falling apart.
Wonderful! You mean these are happening in the Arab world? How did it happen?
A hungry man is an angry man. In Tunisia the people defied the police. They defied nature. They defied the law of self preservation. They set themselves ablaze. Algerians did the same. Egyptians followed suit like the kami-kaze Japanese pilots. Self immolation they call it.
I just hope the rest of Africans are watching.
Sure. It's "Siddon Look". We are watching. Ivorians are watching. Niagarans are watching. Everybody is watching
