As the chairperson of the @_AfricanUnion @CyrilRamaphosa you must take immediate action to investigate the human rights abuses that have occurred in Nigeria during the #EndSARS protests.

Africa does not need more quiet diplomacy. This issue must be raised at the UNSC. Image
Africa must stand with the youth of Nigeria. They are the future of the nation. They are the lifeblood of the nation, no nation at war with its youth can prosper.
We are part of this continent.

While we have our own domestic problems and they are many, we must not remain silent when we see atrocities committed on African soil.

We spoke up for #GeorgeFloyd and we must speak up for #EndSars, we must lead with love, we must lend our voice.
For those who have not been following the events in Nigeria.

Thread.

It’s been a year since I resigned from the Democratic Alliance.

My skin is glowing, my mind is clear, I am at peace and I have had some time to reflect on my political journey thus far.
Did I sell out by joining my ex?

Many people have questioned my “black credentials” as it were.

When I got into formal politics there were two main rivals and I did not believe in the ANC. I believed it was the right and strategic move at the time. I bought into the vision.
I grew at lot, I learnt the internal dynamics of a national political entity, I got to see the nature of our national problems first hand. Policy problems, personnel problems.

I also got to understand the problems with political parties as they exist in our landscape.
