Soon their machetes and AK-47s will be drawn out and Africans will once again begin another bloody slaughter of their own kind; while the people that instigated it will remain unperturbed as they lushly quaff down very expensive French Cognacs in the safe confines of their gated high walled communities. They do not really care about the people otherwise why would anyone of them string-out on a lost election; fully aware of the inevitable resulting dire consequences? Icheoku says, if only these usurpers are aware of the ferocity of the fire they set by their obstinacy and insistence not to relinquish power; maybe they will rather honorably relinquish power at the end of their term of office. This stupidity must not be allowed again in Ivory Coast; the defeated President Laurent Gbagbo must make way for the victorious Alassane Quattara to step in or be forced to do so through an internal military putsch or invasion by a foreign country or a super-power. No excuses or conditions should be good enough in this case and if it means cutting off the snake's head to stabilize the polity, oh well and dandy, so be it. Bloody African leaders who always put their selfish interest to remain in power far and above all other considerations including if it boils down to having no country left anymore for their grand-children and great grand children to enjoy or call their own?
