THE GENIUS OF A TRIUMPHANT AFRICAN SOCIETY – (UNITY)

 

From studies and my travels around Africa, it is obvious that Africa remains the hope of the world. Africa, has a 7 trillion economy represented by 55 countries of many nations (tribes), with a total population of 1.4 billion people with an average age of 18years.



It will surprise you that half the gold ever mined on earth comes from Africa, Africa is the world’s largest platinum producer, ”Africa has the world’s second largest diamond reserves.” In fact, Africa has enough mineral resources to feed the whole world several times over, but what perplex many is why she has the poorest people on planet earth. Africa with all its wealth is called the 3rd world, a Caucasian economic word to manipulate Africa to think and believe they are poor. The wealth of a continent is not base on its wealth in the bank, but in its natural resources and man power. We have both the population and natural resources and therefore should be the richest. But why are we still poor? The problem of Africa is not similar to that of any people on earth and therefore cannot be compared.

 

To solve the African problem, we don’t target it from effects, but we get to its roots, which I will tell you a bit before getting to its solution.

 

Did you know that before the Arabs who were the first enslavers to enter Africa around the 7th century of our time, Africa had well organized kingdoms and states? We can’t go again to put emphasis on the ancient civilization of our ancestors in Egypt which gave the world its order, arts and sciences. We can remember the Great kingdoms that rose in Africa during our time as far back as the kingdom of Kush (1000BC- 150AD), and the Kingdom of Aksum founded by the Christian King Azana at around AD 250 all in the East. Also in the West of Africa, the great Ghanian Kingdom that emerged around AD 500, the Malian Kingdom of Sundiatta and Mansa Musa the Islamic ruler who made Islam his state religion and created schools to teach his people. And lastly not the least, the great Zimbabwean kingdom in the south, which when its ruins were being studied by the Caucasians in the 18th century claimed that a superior class of people were living there due to the kind of architecture they saw there and the remains of an advance civilization than the white people had ever experienced. Your ancestors succeeded not as a divided people but as united people. Union and communal life is the style of the African man, so as long as Africans stay divided, they stay conquered.



The African genius is her unity, when the African people work together, they succeed better, than divided. But when Caucasians started entering into Africa in search of gold in the 15th century, they discovered our people and the riches in their command. They began by stealing them across the sea to use them as slaves to build and develop their tribes like machines. When they saw that they had succeeded in building their tribes to become prosperous and modern, they decided to stop the open slavery and continued with the looting and enslavement in another way. As a result of the wealth of the land, they started multiplying their entry to Africa to loot the wealth. This resulted to a conflict between the various European tribes (nations) here on African soil. This conflict happened because, when the looting got serious, due to the fact that, when the explorers (thieves) as they were called saw how a portion of land in a particular area was rich, even though one of them had laid claim over it, they will want to get there even if a member from another tribe (nation) was already there. It resulted to the infighting. Bismarck, the then chancellor of Germany called for a meeting which held from November 1884 till February 1885 in Berlin’s, known to some of you as the Berlin conference. This meeting among the European tribes was not to help organize or advance the African civilization, but to plan how to loot the land orderly and to enslave the African people without taking them out of their land this time, they divided the nation of Africa into different small portions without the concern of Africans, for each of their tribes to loot. This meeting organized I Berlin to steal from Africans and to divide them for permanent enslavement, is today studied in our so called history as the conference of colonization in Berlin. What a lie, they never had Africa in mind, they despised us and wanted all that belonged to us. ”In fact they are jealous of us, but they can’t be us. Because of the lies, Africans don’t studyh their true history and consequentially have become a people without an identity, confused, frustrated in life with a feeling of an inferiority complex to their enslaver and as a result we hate ourselves.” This is all what was planned in that meeting in Berlin, a system the British had been implementing before then. They were depersonalizing us, making us humans without an identity. They destroyed all what we believed in and presented themselves as next to God and superior to us, a belief most of our people still hold till now. They destroyed our spiritual foundation and replaced it with theirs etc. When it came to independence after some of our fathers of independence had studied under them, their eyes got open, and they started asking for independence, some of them were termed rebels and killed like Ruben Um Nyobel in Cameroon, others were granted independence but later chased and murdered like Patrice Lumumba of Zaire, Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana and the list continuous. Others were manipulated into signing a treaty of the continuation of colonization, where everything remains under the control of the colonial master France, imply till now, this nations have not gotten their independence though they claim to. With all this you don’t expect to see a powerful economic continent. But every problem has got a solution.



Today This effects can’t be solved unless we deal with the root cause. Firstly the African man needs to know who they are. There is need for a primary mental formating and complete renewal. We are now slaves in our mind and the white man knows it and is taking advantage of it to continue their systematic looting. They are not our enemies, but our true enemies is what we now have in our minds which they planted. So with all our riches, unless this primary job is done, we are going no where. Thank God this gathering exist for that purpose.

 

Secondly, with a population of over 1.4 billion people, by the year 2030, Africa will have a labour force of over 1billion people bigger than any continent on earth. This labour force can become the game changer for Africa, if the right educational curriculum is designed in relationship our present challenges, to solve the technical problems we have in our society. “Education is not just schooling, like what we are doing now in Africa.” With this, Africa will have the fastest growing education sector which will raise all quality of technicians.

 

Thirdly, by virtue of slavery and colonization, Africa missed out in the first and second industrial revolution, and got to feel just the effects of the third industrial revolution. But with the present 4th industrial revolution, warming the world, Africans must not remain sedated in this mental sleep we have been put in for long, we need to take advantage of the artificial intelligence revolution and claim our destiny and be placed back in the first position among the family of humans. If you study well, you will discover that Africa is the fastest growing community in the world. In 2013, we had over 167 million internet users, this same number has expanded and by 2025, it will pull up to about 600 million, and by 2035 it would have grown to 1billion persons.

 

All these can translate into accelerated economic growth in other sectors as digital transformation spreads rapidly across all industries. So, Africa, there is hope and we need to depend on it.



Fourthly, another standing issue that we need to handle is that of leadership. The present state of Africa owes it failures to the class of leaders governing the affairs of the continent. Most of our leaders are puppets place in power by the enslaver, who for their gain needs this leaders to maintain us in slavery. Also, some of these leaders motivated by their personal greed are selling our resources for their personal gain. That is the worse crime in a state to be committed by a leader. Indeed it is treason. But we must not keep crying and complaining but doing nothing, we need to rise up Africa, it is time. I will encourage the youthful generation to get engaged in politics not to mix up issues, but to reach the goal of enforcing change in our continent.

 

And lastly, as I said above, Africa needs to unit as a single block. It is this unity that will take away the artificial borders that the Berlin conference placed upon us in 1884. When that is done, that will be the beginning of our greatness, because the various micro economies of each country now in Africa, will be merged into a single market economy. It will have a single and strong economy of over 7 trillion dollars, this time without borders and restrictions. It will be the richest in the world compared to non. In addition, when we will want to do trade with the other parts of the world, we will trade by our own terms, we will play by our own rules, by so doing, Africa will become a paradise it was before the destroyer came to Africa.



I think it is time Africa unites, because that is the African genius, it will give us an unfair advantage over others, who have been unfair in dividing us. The Chinese who are now encroaching into Africa with a determination to own Africa will lost its power if we can put things into perspective. “I just think it is time Africa.” It is time for us to lead. It is time for us to rise and be the star we always had been.
