When China’s president, Xi Jinping was first appointed president in 2013, his maiden foreign visit included a trip to the Congo Brazzaville and to South Africa. Once again, since being appointed a second term, his first trip was a four-nation tour of the continent. Throughout his presidency Xi Jinping has made it a priority for him and other top state officials to visit African countries as a way to solidify and build upon ever growing Sino-Africa relations. In fact, the Chinese foreign minister makes an annual visit to the continent at the beginning of each year. Meanwhile the US presidents tradition is to visit the continent in their final year in office.

I’m from Angola, and this visit has been a disaster for the entire country. The MPLA government, which has been in power for 50 years, is marked by corruption and mismanagement. People are struggling to survive, with some even resorting to eating garbage. Elections are often stolen, and the opposition leader is denied the right to speak in public forums. It’s all just a big show and a shameful situation. 😥😥😥😥
