Usain Bolt: Usain St Leo "Lightning" Bolt, OJ, CD. You're the greatest sprinter of all-time; that's established, and no legendary figure can come classier. For my part, I'm just so glad that I'll be able to tell my kids about the amazing things you did, and that I was a contemporary. Respekt konkrete bredda. Big up and good luck to new beginnings.
Well, in sports, we retire. Politicians don't want to leave, so I digress:
In politics, whenever you hear unanimous decision, it's never a 100%, best believe. There's always a dissenting voice that's suppressed. So, just because a thing's the majority's decision doesn't always make it the wisest.
Anyway, 99% of Rwandans have made their position clear by renewing the incumbent's almightyship, like it's usually done in Africa, and as they did during their referendum - you know, allowing Paul Kagame to remain in power until as far as 2034.
It's democracy, so I wouldn't call it a foolish majority. In fact, good luck with the man. However, my thoughts and prayers are with that wise 1% of Rwandans who voted for change. I feel that they deserve my prayer for the fortitude to bear whatever it is that their fears are.
