“..the Western press, so harsh when it comes to a Mugabe and so concerned with democratic progress in Africa remains silent about the exploits of this hero of françafrique's [sham democracies, Biya]. For this self-righteous press, as for Whites, it's dictatorship only when their interests are endangered.”

The press(within and outside Africa) did raise a fuss regarding Kenya's recent crisis and the Nigerian 2007 'elections'. Mightn't this lopsided coverage have more to do with the Anglophone/Francophone divide and their differing histories?
