Charles Onyango-Obbo's Articles in African Insights

       

 
 
 
 
 
  • The death has occurred of Mrs Africa Media Freedom
    On Thursday, probably the most ambitious pan-Africa media conference starts in Nairobi. The conference is organised by the Nation Media Group (NMG) and the Africa Media Initiative. Among other things, the conference also celebrates NMG's 50th anniversary.
  • The Berlin Wall fell for Africa too – I'm living proof
    The fall of the Wall and the end of the East-West Cold War impacted Africa extensively. For one, Nelson Mandela might never have been released, and South Africa would probably still be an apartheid state.
  • Why Obama would never be a true African chief
    I think we are in danger of getting carried away by Obama and forgetting to do one of the things that has enabled Africans survive all sorts of hardships -- have a good laugh.
  • Mugabe is full of passionate certainty, rest lack conviction
    "Why is it," he wanted to know, "that African strongmen tend to seem more powerful and entrenched at the point when their political record is at its worst?"
  • Why the world will always 'love' dictator Idi Amin
    Amin's story has barely been told. After most of his victims and enemies die, and the memories of pain fade, thus allowing a less guilt-ridden study of his times, new narratives will emerge in years to come. In Amin is the person in all of us. The man who will buy his girlfriend an expensive diamond ring in the morning, then murder her and stick the body in a fridge in the evening.
  • 100 years from now, we'll still be basking in Mandela's glory
    When I checked on Thursday, there were over 210 news outlets in the world that had reported something about the grand old man’s birthday. Mandela’s more enthusiastic fans call him the world’s only living saint. That is debatable, but he is no doubt one of the world’s most loved elder statesmen. Invariably, more new books, photo exhibitions and all manner of parties marked the birthday.
