Africa and the London G20 Summit

Daudi Were of Kenya and Sokari Ekine of Nigeria were two African bloggers who attended the G20 Summit in London in early April.

Were observed:

We are under-represented at these summits because we are increasingly irrelevant. On the global scene African countries have very little influence, even less power and no force at all (except against other African countries).
