If a European or American company was o say the same thing they would be hammered to hell and back in the courts and branded as racist and social pariahs.
It seems that there is one rule for an African wanting to work in Europe or America, and a totally opposite rule for a Non-African wanting to work in Africa.
I have read enough threads on here where people have talked about the vast numbers of African pilots flying abroad because the jobs are not available locally, but they don't continue the equation that this must mean African pilots are taking jobs from the many out of work locals in the countries they have gone to. If you don't believe that there are out of work pilots in Europe and the USA take a look at the forums for those areas.
If a pilot has the correct qualifications then they should get equal opportunity for any position, in any country they apply to.
Well that is utopia and probably won't be achieved i n my life time (which hopefully has some way to go yet
)
