Interesting development in Southern Africa

Yesterday, there was a huge protest in South Africa’s largest city. In the protest, thousands of South Africans asked Nigeria and the world to forgive them for the xenophobic violence.

Also yesterday, at the funeral of President Mugabe, the crowd booed at the South African President when he came to make his speech. The President repeatedly apologized for the violence in South Africa, saying he was ashamed of it.

The events of the past two weeks have placed South Africa in a terrible state, setting their country’s development 25 years behind. It will take many peace protests and apologies from the President to make any difference.
