Now a group of African leaders have been working quietly on seeing how best Africa can put up an initiative to try and get the two parties to speak, so that conflict can be resolved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ANC President Ramaphosa addresses delegates in KZN\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wOSNw7c26jI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/cape-verde\">Cape verde<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Cape verde.
