A Comment on Issa Shivji's critique of Mo Ibrahim's Prize

This article, originally published in 2007 as part of my AfricanPath Guest Blogger Series (please note that, regrettably, the original AfricanPath site was discontinued), is now lodged at the Centre for Civil Society's Online Library at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa.

1960 - 2010: "The Year of Africa" 50 Years On

This series is specially featured by my good friend and fellow blogger BRE at Jewels in the Jungle, Germany. As he puts it:

Since the beginning of January a good friend and fellow blogger from Angola has been publishing a special series (in English and Portuguese) on the 50th anniversary of African independence from colonialism.
I do not know how many people have read Koluki’s series since she started the project but what has been somewhat surprising to me is the scarce coverage of this historic year for Africa by much of the news media outside of the African continent. If it were not for contributions online from some talented African journalists, writers and new media producers (including a small group of independent blog authors) along with a handful of international foundations and government websites, Africa’s Golden Jubilee of Independence from Colonial Rule (1960-2010) would go largely unnoticed in many parts of the world.
