English Riots - Solutions from Africa

ETHIOPIA. The African Union today adopted a unilateral resolution to deploy army troops and care packages to England as looting and violence spread from London to other major cities. Spokesperson Charity Khumalo said "We can no longer stand by while these savages tear themselves apart."
The AU, meeting today in an emergency session to discuss the ongoing rioting in the UK, has declared that they will do "everything in their power to help bring civilization to England".
"It's just so sad, you know," said Khumalo, speaking from the organisation's HQ in Addis Ababa, "sitting here and watching them on TV while their society implodes. We cannot in good conscience remain idle and let it happen."
The AU has announced a range of initiatives that Africans can get involved with to help alleviate the misery of the English.
"For instance, we have launched an 'Adopt an English child' programme," Khumalo explained, showing journalists brochures featuring the faces of English kids. "If you donate a mere R50 a month, you can see to it that sweet little Johnny from Peckham receives a basic education, a pack of condoms and a pair of pimpin' Nikes."
The organisation also plans to air-drop care packages on major UK cities.
"Vegetables, mainly," Khumalo confirmed. "We're sending them vegetables, soap and toothpaste."
The AU's flagship event, however, will be a star-studded rock concert to be held in Johannesburg, with all proceeds going towards the establishment of mobile libraries around the UK. Artists ranging from Mafikizolo to Steve Hofmeyr have pledged to perform at the show.
"As a humanitarian, it's the least I can do," Hofmeyr said yesterday.
Meanwhile, the week's events has seen terrified South Africans in London and Manchester packing their bags for home.
"This country is going to the dogs, dude," said Werner du Preez, a gap-year student from Johannesburg. "I've been offered a nice little two-bed place in Hillbrow where I can feel safe again."
