What a shame!

[quote]For the third time in its six year history, no-one has been deemed worthy of a $5m award for former African leaders.

The Mo Ibrahim Prize recognises politicians who excel in office and leave when they are supposed to.

No one has met the criteria this year. [/quote]

I do not think any African leader will win this, if they set the standard that high.

They don't need the money

[quote=harrydre]One Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta will be a recipient of this award when the time comes.which African leader willingly passes power, goes to ICC and clears his name? Which incumbent accepts to repeat elections after a win? Kweli ama uwongo?[/quote]
Hapo tuko pamoja

They have my vote.

[quote=McReggae]Mo is joking with people, why can't he give the award money to other deserving African leaders that have made a difference, that decision will always be subjective!!![/quote]

I totally agree. If he is serious or has the cash to give out, then the money should be philanthropically distributed to deserving charitable organisations. If he's confused about these as well he can check out the CNN Heroes project to know which ones are most deserving. After all, our African leaders are too rich to go after such little money.
