So Africa Parks couldn’t find an African president?

We’re appointing the same people who own vast ranches on our lands after usurping the natives of the same lands and reducing them to extreme poverty.

RE: "Akagera park welcomes Prince Harry’s appointment as Africa Parks President” (The New Times, December 28). A continent of around one billion people and we couldn’t find a native African with the same credentials to occupy the three top posts within that organization?

There’s selling your soul and then there’s rewarding the devil for stealing your soul.

No African could be found for the post of Chairman, CEO and President? Unbelievable!
