UN secretary general Kofi Annan has disclosed that the present poor continent of Africa is basically because of old aged men in power.
The peace keeping symbol made this amusing comment at the just finished world changers summit which took place in Namibia.
“Africa has great values to depend upon, Africa could be independent, but we have too many old men at the presidency, some are above 70yrs, and what do you expect them to do?” wondered Annan.
This shocking view was made to inspire Africans to choose a more younger and better men and women into power rather than old men.
“African politicians must learn to retire at a minimum age of 70yrs, but rather we have packed old men in our leadership, how could we move forward. Some are even above 80yrs and still ruling,” said Annan.
