Issa,

I am furious Issa. What is this without Kenneth Kaunda? Sio kama hawa waliotajwa hawastahiki bali Kaunda ni lazima atiwe kwenye list yoyote ile ya ukombozi wa Africa.
Kumtoa Kaunda ni kuwatusi sio Wazambia tu bali wote wale wa Southern Africa - hasa baada ya sacrifices tele walizozitoa katika ukombozi wa Mozambique, South Africa na Zimbabwe.
Kutokuwepo kwa portrat ya Kaunda is to insult us all.
Kama kweli portrait yake Kaunda haipo pale kwenye jengo la AU (Addis Ababa) basi nitaanza hata peke yangu campaigns za portrait yake iwekwe.

Hi Elisa,
You meant who are the other five and not four. No one has been removed as a result of Mwalimu being added. The list now has 6 names.
The previous 'Big-Five' line-up honoured with portraits is made up of none other than:
[1] Nelson Mandela,
[2] Patrice Lumumba,
[3] Gamal Abdel Nasser,
[4] Haile Selassie, and
[5] Kwame Nkumrumah.
For Nkurumah, they even have his statue in front of the Chinese built multi-million Dollar building.
Big-Five in reference to AU sometimes also refer to those five economic power-houses of Africa which contribute 67% of its budget and these are:
[1] South Africa
[2] Algeria
[3] Nigeria
[4] Egypt, and
[5] Libya
Each of the above countries contribute 13% with Libya contributing 15% and the remaining 33% is contributed by the other remaining countries according to their GDPs.
It now remains to be seen if Libya after an imperialist-engineered revolution will continue with the 15% that brother Colonel Muammar Gadhafi (the man some of us wined, dined and danced when he was killed) used to contribute.
"It's nostalgic", one African diplomat told Zanzibar Ni Kwetu some few weeks ago in Addis Ababa and added, "Those tall and beautifully camouflaged women soldiers with big ..... are now gone". And indeed they are gone for ever.
Political pundits in the corridors of the new AU Building in Addis Ababa openly admit that with the demise of Gadhafi AU meetings are nowadays very boring, as much of the revolutionary fanfare that used to permeate such meetings is now no longer there.
...bin Issa.
