Yes, but unless you have actually seen him you just don't know what he is. He says that his schooling was in French--which would be very unusual for a Kikuyu--unless he grew up in Djibouti.

^I don't doubt that you are an African. Like any other on this planet, we have the good and bad apples of society.

A supposed continental African describing himself simply as a black African disregarding his nation, his mother language, or his region in direct identification?
Would this be because, if indeed such a one was any kind of African (rather than a non-African spoofing an African identity), that one'd be totally de-Africanized (as far as nationality, language, or name)?

I merely posted my surmises based on the common occurence of identity spoofing on the internet and the non-specific identity dislocated individuals or expatriated families/communities often display.
But
"If the cap fit, wear it."
BTW - al~Takruri perfectly describes my most recent regional continental origins. And of course you owe me nothing. Go on speaking for the whole continent oops I mean all the black Africans.
P.S. The "poster before me" and most other posters here never claim to speak for any one but themselves nor do they provoke ethnic antagonism or make biased remarks referencing continental origin, colour, or cephalic/nasal features.
