Kibera Kings
Kibera is Africa’s second largest slum and is home to an estimated one million people. A
slum is normally associated with a life of dejection, despair and poverty. Youth coming
from the slum are generally expected to fit a certain stereotype, mostly, illiterate,
criminal and hostile. Though it is true that some youth from the slum exhibit such
characteristics, these personalities are found in individuals from all societies irrespective
of their background. The Initiative for Sports and Social Arts (ISSA) is a communitybased
organization in Kibera and it strives to engage the youth here in sports and art as
a way of celebrating diversity. |

Eritrea a Nation Held Hostage
Isaias Afewerki was hailed by Eritreans as the great liberator of the people when he
became the nation’s first president in 1993. He represented a new breed of an African
leader; young, charismatic, and determined to build a prosperous future. He brought
hope to a nation that had for so long appeared hopeless. Isaias started to reconstruct the
nation, promised to respect human rights, hold free and fair elections, and build a strong
economy with jobs for all. Eritreans were to be rewarded for their struggle. But these
rewards never came. Human rights groups say Eritreans are being imprisoned, tortured
and killed in increasing numbers. Some are held in shipping containers in 50-degree
heat, others in solitary confinement or in underground cells. The fairy tale has turned
into a nightmare. |
