Interestingly, you still hear the statements, 'freedom figher' in the mix yet all Ugandans now know that guys fought for their own tummies, not for anyone's freedom. We are in for along ride with plenty of crocodile tears all around. - Jude Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:51:59 +0100 http://www.independent.co.ug/News/news-analysis/2045-african-leaders-tackle-plight-of-their-victims#comment-21007 Your headline says it all: "African leaders tackle plight of their victims". Mass displacement in Africa is often the result of failed leadership. By failing to acknowledge their own roles in creating the problem and shifting the blame elsewhere shows that some of these leaders are not at all serious about tackling this issue but merely "paying lip service" as usual. Yes the plight of IDP's should be taken seriously by international bodies such as the United Nations and African Union. International law should recognize their plight and offer protection since their suffering is not any different from those of refugees and in some cases even worse! - Akhenaten Thu, 05 Nov 2009 11:06:33 +0100
