trying to mend some old this spring just tawdry good i'm led to this lot of for the glory of them feast at outcome of all want to find it's all wood writing about that those who is issuing these globs as i said it does begin known as it's going to oh yes is that quality and i thought is that quality will make it play out in the jungle a bill on it because of human habitation in business is disturbed or destroyed
as long as it's about my view when you know the squirrels to make a new bedding and they will begin to do donate another home so i know this is going to pass it was cut off in the devos art they got themselves nobody knew my disease in new predicaments we're already written you lose your cartoons photos which take into account the present condition was as long as you've got our live that put as i live as long as people like angie jolie changing the only as aleppo just whacko judge exists independently of people using these young and this is not an african institutions isn't that is double what a little about
culture exists in new zealand's it's already dead my man have a good good good news your show you it is so skillfully give the impression of completeness or even life what it is now a lot of that only the skin we just named as discard and i wanted to it this has been the problem all the african intellectual gods and artists that has been that far behind people will need to go to it must end discretion in that way it is that
about soon but customs that i chose long it is that there are two thousand people i was important these battles are my friends that owns source of true independents as opposed to funding for independence that moves towards the creation of the modern states of the neo colonial enclaves we have to get it a regime that has informed with african ideologies what is the rise of the right in this movement i suggest that is because it is the right and the moment it was oh i bet on it
so my friends say no this is it's still there have no business the ladies are you should be on the sidelines with his note about bands and wang can absolve objectivity i said at the right time you got an illusion that outside on the sidewalk another writer who lives when the events resume there will become like the intellectual debate in many other places we're asking is what's the meaning of my existence long to me or somebody else does my left lung to me ought to some other person doesn't know i was like well i mean i have
had to him why doesn't it i know some bean lot like because a lot of those guys the pool yes and moved my son and four and dead heat it is not the judges these problems banks don't try to cut it out to remote song like in june and say hi on our news blog so strange and at twilight film i call my own over on a possessed longing to buy me out small as yet invisible in all this about him that is a question that no openness utility on someone's got going and our son is in action sharon long seventy years
of stumble across landscapes of frozen souls eye sees my we realized one day between white collar crimes and should you might yell it achieve watch and threw it down beside me on the law and was politely i know they hadn't shown as bobby harper and dan in new data and do you think is the phrase in common with the sweating finally climbed to me yeah my hansel knew the harshness in the moon in the shaded patch a source of instability how much of this sense he's as they died and i was a religion as long open long these huge windows and bowls to my heart now split by thirty rooms of the night became my leg in
our homes priced into all looted my proud program it has been the preakness brings in we will answer questions for about fifteen or twenty minutes and then will adjourn and anyone who is interested can go into the catholic student center where reception from a search and they will be held and refreshments sir all right it's b
mr lyon at mile mongol bitty unfunded under you know i had to allow big words the congolese going to develop cancer i might consult he was on mission hill who's dead at mollison i'm i just legally i can go and what i can do is give an indication that i have mine set there's a long o nation's polish the leaves you know there's you know all these far
off our listeners the six oh it's recess roast for iranians because they say it's because it is for this is that
engine listen to the opera which is fourteen million people but the main point is about emission is not a market sell people talk about economic in a nation as people wrestle them out of a lot of the mission is not about watching a mission is not how big is the market you'll find this conservation comes from somebody once it's brought to market and it began to market is that it knows you don't have to go to two markets uganda were markedly and you'll have a lot of them well besides is quote if it works oh oh whatever you say you're on an on this ideal the economy i think you come out of the nation to more nations in fact that already suddenly shows out on many parts of the
world this is by now is because of the sixties he was like many other it wasn't the only one who is a trial and was generally you know honestly so a lot more honest about other legs suddenly to begin with it was an
experiment was thriving what i'm saying is that if you tried it and it's clearly it didn't flow of disastrously in nineteen sixty it costs fares of thousands of innocent lives is in the mall at one the experiments to lose it and billions get mesmerized by this idea that well we got this is like business to the team and ourselves how we got it and justice our last day little background history of nigeria we needed all along what he's done this that rectangle africa users in the middle school and then that no friend of government why don't you call it my duty and slowly
became known as nigeria let alone sixty has lived and those lawyers in the position it is that without being denied dependent on a couple of goats which is true then a busy guns so again that was markedly how even our national anthem which is a rival many nations was written for us by a british housewife would notice influence on my guest is you know about it in the papers and beyond them did
you see it it's bleak you are business you are sure did to understand it clearly understand what's going on because it's not easy you can get it and because you've been asked do so well known to find out what's going on this is why i believe in what i'm doing and then to come out was an impossible task that we do in other sources but the other side has been printing and what it does and wanted to understand it does and what you'll don't get a truck engine allies nations
my son is not my fault i i said why does talking to black intellectuals here i have friends among writers you tend to not understand what's going on the afternoon when his idea of muslim islamic think is really kind of africans is not true representative jd and isuzu is not true at all but then again on this idea that the middle and it has these muslim the us has passed in an oversimplification so that that's that's what was it you know this is the jetsons that is they said to me why are the white member of the supporting you
use the sound and always you and i said to them what is widely rose less importance the british are supporting the idea that individuals ended up on as if you're a bus and send us another thing that is what is in that i'm doing this is what makes a difference dann reiten egypt to ally defend the united states are supporting idea how do you come to the right this idea of white people you know how to disable will go i don't know and i don't respond to what they should do they should important how we have one another on how we also you must understand that so we've had all kinds of misunderstandings in the past this
week nice nice nice he says beams be nice be nice i think
the society you talk about is highly sophisticated if you think you get the impression of niger to this my fault us has a point where all those civilizations all your fault in some of the points but that's it was very complex it was very complex but the points you make is thought it is it possible to i catch up that kind of society its ideas and song on and make use of it all modernization no other ways that i don't know it's too late and doing the best we can do is to it was a society in which they won't view is that it doesn't define extent our man in society
the men and their blogs at mende i'm rachel you saw was all seen within one and one does not like standing on i mean you may not say that is not there like i am the way the truth and the life in that most of the men have these polices it doesn't even gloats about others are debating the globe's how that was to blame i knew that god fills the blaze but he's punished i know in some polls well i got which is supposed to protect the lives of the people does it lose jobs and people carrying out a mass i do get it hasn't found and what that kind of society you cannot last month i mean even at an innovative have been disturbed so violent that one aspect of it you auditioned to kuow cool society
that can be revealed in the society in the family the extended family for instance doesn't mean i am myself my wife on one time was not ideal you've gotten it off on law sought out tremendously two years ago and recently had an influx of two million people ideal families what was then that we can make use of it and the un's to organize this be a nice balance i will i don't know yes it
has been that is true a sudden expedience i knew then you can discuss with anthropologist bit on how kindred <unk> mind mind or deserving who as a result of the common wisdom about expedience and though our view is not that different decided that does come on themselves and said we are a nation he said while obama repeated to boot it was not good and we still say that does it want to be the orphans you mosey what does
the ethics and so when i didn't say no this is not true they don't want to become beyond friends now what what is essentially asking what should that once it is that we do we go and ask these people so the ethics values the jaws that's an ally than art in heaven so years ago that i do where they want to be in the office why don't i ask you what they're afraid of the answer so now there is a house as i know that is the outcome that was not even if it's proved that wrong that is equivalent of new debt so to the nation or they have to ask you i'm city and design it's
been nice division does to your house one desired result was i think in many ways it's not only one try and as long as you know what the enzyme and the hens must be a big load of these little what you call the people that must use of that and that is why my porro of independence in africa today that in most cases it is a lot interested in the bowl and the masses of the people it isn't interested in developing what it leads on developing issue because also to develop a us moral a tiny settlement i this is called development this is what the gate is god hope i don't i don't you know this is a development
i think it has developed that way in thank you mr dennis was by either the majority of them was already did was a dozen you want lots of new ones and lawful right and much of it is about the war wasn't going try and err on the drama is getting good new under the argo about the last two years is a tremendous experience ms belie
the fbi we live in an amazon natural environment just nine eleven you realize like oh we've been out of war now for nearly three years now blockaded west you know or do you as these pieces it's big you're
white we get some milk that i'm not going to i want a multimillion milk and it is an important lily's integrity african nations this is what it says of the time for them to show the bottom needs now says it and india's eat on iran her policy has plummeted this is what we know so in this way and many of the numerous ways you know they give a lot of people like to support the other side and it has to have the important doesn't it has all the arms on the nfl all the things it needs solo in it is just to say you are so bold and this is important
as business is business well this is oh yeah and i mean i don't really know how we lead of art briles in the western region of nigeria debt described as tax the violence always suspect they may be more well it wouldn't really know unless they speak out
like one issuing kind of the clear that localities is the west and i sat out and got into trouble mr koppelman it i don't know what does not think in private and you know whether it being good thoughts about the other one the scent is so does all this in as being stereotyped it's also really depends on on mount it's almost unknown because iran yes it is advisors what else cause it's been a builder do so the
body into the same at independence what you what you will independence on into the dome and as long as i say that well it all depends why different object is a sin and that so it's that i want to mr martin interested about to take a real interest in them and what goes on here because you've been making gains reflected in africa and rising rents and this is not new in this afternoon it's all it's about a quote phenomenon going back to be pheasant romney's of nationalism in west africa a lot of support i was the like it does
about movement from the black people here they were like it was on marco's got the news he may not even know we do you suddenly knew about him led a bother me now because so there was this link and their wealth into my friend days how we have to get down into concrete knowledge and with the history of us depending on that honor tis all suddenly that is that the us led zeppelin i met him just briefly was in got it he wasn't talking very much the new as very very impressive because beaks are
