I am sure every Kenyan blogger is blogging about this and I don’t want to be left out. For the first time since 1901 an African woman, a Kenyan with dreadlocks to be more specific, has won the Nobel Prize.
Congrats Prof. Wangari Maathai. You deserve it.

I’m not Sure how I feel about the whole thing: The award has a patronising air to it since Maathai is known more for environmental causes as opposed to conflict reduction/resolution. The suggestion that world peace presently hangs on environmental salvation is simply contrived. But then again, I could say Hail the African woman like the Norwegians.

Kiriba..only you would say something like that Good to see you commenting though. I wish you were here to back me up with your pro-African views especially last week when a fellow volunteer tried to convince me that there were benefits to colonisation.
