Dear editor,

I have been following reports from your paper and others, that albinos are being killed in Tanzania and Burundi, with great concern. For God’s sake, why do some people act as if they do not have common sense?

Killing a baby whether white or black, coloured or albino can never change one’s economic status. This behaviour however, tells volumes on the nature of some of our fellow Africans -they simply cannot think beyond their noses- I have to agree with the person who says "that common sense is not always common.”

I would like to use your paper to call upon all these characters, to stop killing innocent children.
