This is Africa, where men rule over everything. They (we) have populated the continent with our offspring. We have ruled over majority of the states. We have defined culture to serve our interests. A man eats the best parts of the meat. A man gets the best hut (sometimes constructed by women). A man was never questioned he accounts only to himself. And so on and so on....
In the same essence we also bear most responsibility for the status quo. For the harrowing headlines on new papers. For rampant corruption and theft of "public" coffers.

We play them and leave them with our "mistakes".
