The correct answer is letter A. Here is an excerpt from Tutu's Speech:

"For my beloved country is wracked by division, by alienation, by animosity, by separation, by injustice, by avoidable pain and suffering. It is a deeply fragmented society, ridden by fear and anxiety, covered by a pall of despondency and a sense of desperation, split up into hostile, warring factions. It is a highly volatile land, and its inhabitants sit on a powder keg with a very short fuse indeed, ready to blow us all up into kingdom come."

He is saddened by the fact that his country supposedly flowing of milk and honey is at war and its people are not even safe and protected because of this.
