    Obasanjo being entrusted with bringing peace to the Congo is a joke. Eight years as Nigeria's president did not bring any semblance of peace to the Niger Delta nor personal security to the general populace. He left Nigeria in worst shape than when he bamboozzeled his way into the presidency. He can fool Ban-Ki Moon but not this Nigerian. He is a total disgrace, and I know that sentiment reresents the true feelings of most of us. Congolese people should watch their backs.

    Why in the world do you refer to this guy as the Peacemaker? I saw on Yahoo News a photo of Obasanjo laughing and holding hands with the killer Nkunda - the guy who is causing so much death and destruction in Congo. There is another photo of Obasanjo dancing with the very same rebels who are raping and murdering children. Why didn't he go to visit the women and little girls living at Panzi Hospital because they are leaking urine and feces as a result of being gang raped by Nkunda's men? This is the guy who Ki-Moon assigned to be an "envoy" to Congo? How can a secretary general be so incompetent?

    Monuc doesn't do anything. They don't protect the civil , they rape woment and abuse their power. Information in the media or with the officials are wrong. Journalist have to go there to investigate the situation. Kabila is a moron. He is not going to protect Congo because Rwanda is helping him to keekp the power. Nkunda is tsuti, tribe for Rwanda. Who is going to serve Congo or Rwanda.
