@africa.aware: Addressing world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly, Kenyan President William Ruto declared that Africa’s exclusion from permanent membership of the UN Security Council is “unacceptable, unfair and grossly unjust.” Ruto argued that a continent of 54 nations and more than 1.5 billion people can no longer remain on the sidelines of global decision making. His remarks renewed Africa’s call for a reformed Security Council that reflects today’s world and gives the continent the representation it has long been denied. #africa #africaaware #kenya #african #black
