I think you did not get the point I was driving at. I’m on the same page with you. What I was saying was that even if it’s true that Amina deserved to be purnished, she needed to be dealt with according to the law by the University law enforcement, and not in the hands of the college rogues.

Are you saying she deserved to be sexually assaulted?

and this? “a good point, friend” ???? The whole quote reads,”There have been a few comments here from those who think Amina deserved what she did because a laptop is difficult to come by in Ghana. You have a point, friend;” WHAT FRIEND? They don’t have a point!

I am confused

I wrote a long response that seems to have been lost in transmission.

So this is a very cursory response see:

some of us are trying to lend a voice. Not easy. Most of the ‘public’ supporters are non African women. We continue knowing that if we have been given The Voice then we must represent….

I have had the same thoughts yet have hestitate dto place in writing (perhaps my legal coming out). Bravo to you. We have an agency called Women United for Africa a branch of C4C. As you can imagine we create dthis branch of C4C for many a reason. Well in my experience what is happening is what has happened in the Iman-Al Obedi case in Libya. Iman Bless her heart is a very brave and most wonderful person. Well the woman who have come forth to support in their numbers are non African. As I always teach (with collegaues) I tend to beleive as a scientist that this consistent behavior is correlated to Maslow’s theory and Kholbergs. Of course there is much mor e- however we are not in class and do not have a semesters worth of time to study the clear/scientific (and most faith based as well – disclaimer: for those who beleive God is The Greatest Scientist and made the science of it all) reasons why this phenomenon continues. Enough from me… Please do join up and lend a voice to:
