"content": "When it comes to health, they mentioned Ebola . Ebola is not the only disease. We have malaria that kills every other day. Some of these diseases need to be lumped together and be addressed equally. Ebola is one of those but we also have malaria and HIV/AIDS. I wonder if this is also appearing in the discussions at the PAP. A lot needs to be done and we also need to look around election processes where more violence and problems emerge and Africa can never be the same. We want to see that at the end of the day presidents that take power in Africa are not going to be life presidents. They are not going to be there for the rest of their lives. They need to know that there is a time limit and a time frame and that they need to give up power in a peaceful manner like we see in other countries. That is my contribution and I want to conclude by simply saying that there is hope now. Africa will never be dark again if PAP legislates on those very areas that affect Africa as a continent. Deep harmful cultural practices must be part of that address that will bring Africa to a peaceful process. Otherwise, I think we are moving towards the right direction and very soon the African Union (AU) will be like the European Union (EU) and we will move very well. However, those areas must really be highlighted if we want to work as a one big continent that is looking for peace and to settle men and women on equal terms. Thank you."
