Editor,I am impressed with Oscar Kimanuka’s article titled “why the Congolese people must put their act together”. Those who want to learn must read this article.Indeed, it is high time Africans woke up from the slumber and help themselves. We always burry our heads in the sad like the proverbial ostrich and assume the danger is not coming. We deceive ourselves and expect to be fed by developed countries. This attitude must change.Oscar, your article was great and has reminded me the great words of Marcus Gurvey the great Pan-African leader, God created us masters of our own destiny, masters of our own fate”.Haron MutwiriKigali ------------------------ Editor,I thank God for enabling regional leaders to meet and discuss issues concerning Congo. I know God will guide these leaders meeting in Kampala to come out with a better solution, ending the fighting in DRC.We pray that the spirit of Patrice Emery Lumumba will be manifested profoundly in Kampala this week -- to build that highway of peace among the stakeholders.Margaret S.
