I also worked for over 2 years in a very remote part of eastern Africa, and you are so right.
There is a standard saying in Africa, accompanied by a shoulder shrug; “AWA”. (Africa Wins Again)
This is muttered every time the locals would do something unimaginably self-destructive crazy, and all that could be done is, “AWA”!

So, it’s akin to the Charlie Sheen “Winning”... as in... not really. Another ‘evil thrives when good men do nothing’ scenario. So are we becoming Africa? Will we soon be saying USAWA and shrugging? I fear for our future.
