1. The "house-girl" phenomenon in Africa and the issue of women's oppression of women.
2. African leaders who are replaced by their kids or who are grooming their kids to replace them. The author did not mention Paul Biya, who, it is rumored (these truths always come in the form of rumor) is grooming his son, Frank Biya, to replace him.
3. See where dictators keep their money.

Reading the link "house-girl," I am convinced that it is not true independence that these women are searching for. It seems more so along the lines of them proving themselves and that they are able to contribute, not that they want to and live independently.
And in the process, they cause girls, said to be not much older than their tendents, to act grown before they would of other wise had to.

Reading articles like this remind me of one thing: how blessed I am to have Womens rights and to live in a country that respects women and treats them equally. It is interesting that Eyakuze brought up that women, even in America, are now working more and hardly ever being stay at home moms. The world is changing, and the expectancies for women are changing and become more like the expectancies for men. In other undeveloped countries, this can result in increased child labour, abuse, and slavery of women.
