Hear Who Is Talking

In a recent speech at the United Nations, Paul Biya, Cameroon's dictator for about 28 years now, made this disingenuous observation:
"How can we today explain why Africa is the only continent without a permanent member on the UN Security Council? How can we explain the fact that it is unable to make its voice heard when its problems are examined in global economic and financial bodies whereas the decisions taken will be imposed on it?"
Biya seems to be the only one who does not see Africa's weakness in global geopolitics, a weakness that has been exarcerbated by the poor leadership demonstrated by people like him. To wonder why Africa does not have a permanent seat in the security council is to give the impression that such a seat is meant only for purposes of representation rather than as a demonstration of political clout, a thing Africa still does not have. This fake pan-Africanism from Biya is intended to divert attention away from his dictatorial and incompetent governance. As if he would know what to do if given such a seat!
