Nkurunziza-Kagame-Kabila: Constitution? What Constitution?
Constitution? What constitution?Presidential term limits are a hot topic in many parts of Africa at the moment.

-Ce dont jai le plus peur, cest des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre.
- The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
