Peacekeepers in Africa

In this episode of Lumumba’s Africa, Professor P.L.O. Lumumba looks into the issue of peacekeeper forces spread across Africa that are allegedly controlled by the United Nations in order to keep peace but are failing to do so. We examine the pros and cons of having peacekeepers in an African conflict and whether it’s just better, cheaper, and more effective to drop the “UN” charade and just ask individual superpowers to help.
