Pokuaa Busumru-Banson, 

President of the Students Representative Council, University of the Witwatersrand, 
South Africa


 

“Barack Obama strikes me as the kind of leader who represents honest, transparent, creative leadership. This is the kind of example that I, as a young African, look for: leaders who won’t just speak for us, but to us. I am not expecting him to perform miracles, not for America nor for Africa. I merely want him to be a good example.

 

South Africa would like to see President Obama retain PEPFAR [President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief], come to South Africa to visit orphanages and rural areas, and use the same charisma that he used to rally nations to inspire students in African universities to aspire to be good leaders.”
