Ghetto dances: When love of money goes beyond bounds of sanctity

The day was still young and I had not expected to see many people. I was wrong. We took our seats in the far right corner which was diagonally opposite the door. We could easily see those coming in and those going out. “Look in that other corner!” Said Baba VaTata. I  looked in the direction where his forefinger was pointing at. I could see about three deadbeat guys crowding around a half-empty bottle of Chibuku, a popular traditional brew. I say popular because one did not need to dig too deep to buy it and get drunk I am digressing, but please allow me, but whoever came up with this brew invention had communism in mind.

Why African scientists are studying the genes of African species, how they do it

This arms researchers with critical information. They can learn how to treat or prevent diseases, for instance, or how to breed crops and animals with better traits. Those traits might help species adapt better to the environment (more crucial than ever in the era of climate change) or improve their yields, making them more profitable.
