Isn’t Bob doing enough already?
No. Not for the people of Ajumako-Bisease. Much as it was an honour for Bob, he was in fact crowned Chief of Development for a purpose, and he accepted that role. Ajumako-Bisease still does not have the roads or the covered market. There is still no agricultural mechanisation in a town with an economy based on kola and cocoa crops. Geldof certainly made a very moving case for people to turn out in thousands brandishing white wrist bands to end poverty. When asked whether Live8 worked his response was, “Yes it did. Are they less hungry because of what we did last year? Yes they are.”(6) 6. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/5128344.
