Ndi Okereke-Onyiuke speaks to people at a fund raising campaign for American presidential candidate Barack Obama in Lagos, Nigeria, Monday Aug. 11 2008. The event, held by a group calling itself "Africans for Obama 08," drew hundreds of people from the Nigerian business elite. Each paid more than $2,000 to munch on grilled snails, sip from flutes of Veuve Cliquot and Moet & Chandon and join in a lively, if poorly executed, series of the "fist bumps" popularized by Obama and his wife, Michelle.

In this Friday, Dec. 30, 2011 photo, people shop in a market in Fallujah, 40 miles (65 kilometers) west of Baghdad, Iraq. Iraqis are again segregating themselves along sectarian lines, prompted by a political crisis pulling at the explosive Sunni-Shiite divide just weeks after the American withdrawal left Iraq to chart its own future.

In this photo taken Saturday, April 14, 2012, a Tuareg separatist rebel from the NMLA (National Movement for the Liberation of the Azawad) gestures from his vehicle, in a market in Timbuktu, Mali.

Regional bloc ECOWAS said Friday, April 13 that the force would help Mali secure its territory and serve as peacekeepers.
