when hell freezes over africa will have peace

Peace in Africa will be achieved when hell freezes over. The conflicts in Sudan, Congo, Burundi and other parts of the continent overshadows the small tribal conflicts that are steaming with in many areas of the continent. For a continent with so many languages, traditions and cultures, the unionization of a people of different mindsets of rights and wrongs, superiority and inferiority will take incredible will and a strong idealist leader to unite and eradicate these conflict. Africa , is a continent of many faces. The complexity of the people on the continent make them interesting at the same time deadly to themselves. Some of the continents problem is of their own doing. Greed being the chief of them and lust over materialistic things as such, making us an easy prey. We already have problems hence others exploiting us. This ongoing exploitations, corruptions, war and poverty when they cease to be , there will be peace in Africa but this will occur when the world freezes over.
