  R What An African Woman Thinks

   
  ►Elections The Leaders We Deserve. Thursday, April 10
  Ok, this is all the political commentary I'm going to make:
  
  If it is true that we get the leaders we deserve, then someday, somehow, somewhere, we must have done something really really awful.
  
  We're sorry. We will never do it again. Promise. Just please, can we return them? We don't even want our money back. Seriously.
  
  
  
  R What An African Woman Thinks
  It's my window, but I don't own the view.

              ► Bank Robbery         Three years ago, about, I got so cross at my bank (Barclays), that I threatened to close my account and walk away. The response of Barclays employee with whom I was dealing was:
  “Ok, you go ahead and do that. You small customers are a headache to deal with anyway.” (Or some such rudeness.) My friend got more or less the same reaction from Standard Chartered Bank at around the same time. And then came Equity Bank.

►Intolerance    
Two children entered St Mary’s church in Dakhlia during a church meeting and started to throw rocks at the congregation. Shortly after, there were calls from the surrounding mosques urging Muslims to act. A number of Muslims armed with rocks, knives and small weapons as well as bottles filled with acid, congregated around the church and threw the rocks and bottles at the church building.
