Lesson: if you ever lend someone your memory card, consider it permanently transferred. Demanding it might be too dangerous - it might cost your life. Just forget about it and buy another. End of lesson.

You are perhaps aware that there is a good and bad way of exercising sovereignty. Kenya has had to remove and deal with a lot of skeletons from its closet. The comparison is unnecessary. Focus.

Replying to @GlobalNomad_ and @RAbdiAnalyst
That's highly arguable. The source of Somaliland's law is its own constituent and legislature. Somaliland is sovereign to decide it's own residency and citizenship laws. It is simply exercising it's own laws in the same way Kenya does.

Israel is encouraging its citizens to take a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, while most of the world is either suffering from vaccine denial, or the vaccine(s) are simply unavailable. Quo vadis?

In Africa we have black Africans and Arabs and whites and some in between. Like another Literature Nobel Laureate Doris Lessing (Zimbabwean-British). We will see more and more hyphenated people winning these prizes in future, perhaps.

Now Abdulrazak Gurnah is an Arab Zanzibari, who perhaps traces his origins to the Gulf, but his ancestors might have stayed in the Indian Ocean coast for hundreds of years ... hence the confusion whether he's Tanzanian or not. Africa is a complex continent.

People know Zanzibar. Zanzibar is part of the United Republic of Tanzania. In fact, current president of Tanzania H. E. Samia Suluhi is Zanzibari. But I saw some tweeps asking here: is Gurnah Tanzanian? Some didn't know

Barack Obama didn't change much of the relationship between the USA as a hegemon and Africa, his continent of origin. At home, the violence against African Americans continued, perhaps increased right under his watch. Is the world better without Saddam Hussein and Muamar Gaddafi?

While Barack Obama's accession to the Presidency did a lot to enhance the confidence of African Americans as destined to achieve all they can in the country they call theirs by forced migration, his rule was not much different from the rule of other American Presidents.

The Nobel Prize to Barack Obama (USA, 2009) "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples" and Abiy Ali (Ethiopia, 2019) "for his efforts to achieve peace and international cooperation": was it worth it?
