Hindering Borders

In his post,  entitled  ‘Le boulet des frontieres’, which I translate to “Hindering Borders”, Edgard Yapo, a journalist from Ivory Coast, argues that colonial inherited borders, eventhough arbitrary, have a negative impact on the African Solidarity. Those borders are existing solely as the reminder of the exogenous and still actual interests of not so long gone “masters”. What are other African states doing to help the brothers of Niger in their bitter adventure with French Areva? (see an article on forbes.com)
The African “un-solidarity” is directly linked to those borders of shame. I agree with him. We think of different yet complementary solutions to this African problem. Here are my commentaries on Yapo’s enlightening views.
