Liberty Blossoms in East Africa

James Shikwati--the Kenyan economist referenced below is a libertarian! (No surprise there)

Liberty Blossoms in East Africa


by Lawrence W. Reed

We are pleased to announce that James Shikwati Shikuku of Nairobi, Kenya, has become one of ISIL's newest Reps. – joining Agwu Amogu of Nigeria. After a century of socialist tyranny and terrible poverty and violence following on the heels of the colonial period, libertarian ideas and networks have suddenly begun to emerge and evolve throughout Africa – a development which may hold great promise for the Dark Continent.

Interestingly James, with Thompson Ayodele of the Institute of Public Policy Analysis (IPPA) in Lagos, Nigeria have attended ISIL correspondent Barun Mitra's seminars at the Liberty Institute in New Delhi, India. So the network expands in ways never anticipated.
