Because try as we might, journalists occasionally blunder into using lazy cliches. Point taken.

returned from the UK who can get you around town in an
air-conditioned car for for $200/day, but dollar for dollar
I agree that your man is the best fixer in the city. Please
remind him that he has my shirt.

Even the Sudanese who don’t have much to offer will share it with you in all cases. This happens in Ghana not Syria.

Why is it that whenever foreigners refer to an act
of hospitality by a sudanese person, they refer to it as
‘Arab’ customs? Another person made a blog named ‘Arab
hospitality’ about a woman who insisted they must have
lunch in a small Sudanese village. Surely, the blog title
should have been ‘African hospitality, its Africa after all.
Its as if Africans are not as hospitable as Arabs and as if
Sudanese people are Arab and not Africans.
