{UAH} AFRICA’S TOTAL INDEPENDENCE!

 

As one year goes and another year comes in, I am still wondering if any of the African countries has ever obtained total independence. The most painful thing is that Africa is still facing great consequences due to the dubious and unfairness way the continent was demarcated by the Colonial masters in order to meet their own agenda. Africa has been looted by the so called colonial masters when they take away all our rich natural resources including human resource. One example was cited in one of the meetings why the purifying industry for Gold is in Europe when they don't even have a single gold mine. When we talk about of more discoveries of more minerals, like by the recent statement by the Ugandan government, it makes my hair to stand at its edges because I sense more trouble heading for the country. The global statistics-the trends are always made in "those" countries, and they are not even ashamed to put Africa last on the list as the poorest of the poor. They take all our resources and they bring back the surplus in form of AID. Imagine even when there is any football team playing on the African Continent, trust me in the background these guys are there skimming to identify our best players, they steal them and end up weakening our own football. We lose our own identity and we start fighting each other because one is supporting Man United another one Arsenal, then Liverpool, Chelsea name it all. Please God save our continent.  

We are always waiting to be fed like those young birds which are still in the nest. We are living under extreme poverty and yet we are the most blessed, if not more than any of those other continents. When it comes to the restrictions with their stringent immigration policies, mainly denying the poor to even go closer to them, these people will never be ashamed of anything.

President Obama in a few months back summoned all the African leaders to go and discuss the Africa's Economic Recovery Program, and poor African leaders were struggling to attend the meeting in Washington, my own President had even to scrap off a law he had passed on homosexuality, although it was the right thing to do, in the disguise that he was misled. And because of that he was honored with a red carpet. I would think if really these people were thinking of empowering Africa, they would have instead requested the African leaders to organize a meeting, using the OAU instruments to organize such a meeting on the African continent, in order for a few to come down other than the majority to be summoned like kids.

The colonial masters are still continuing to manipulate us using our weak political structures, which they created themselves. And it is such a great pity that our own leaders have fallen pray for the trick. All the misery and the conflicts and the differences on the African Continent are created by our friends. I don't want to mention Libya, Syria, Egypt and others.  

Conclusion and Recommendation:

It is high time to make the Africans become proud and realize the treasure we are sitting on. Let us stop countries like USA, China and the rest to take on the show, as if two men are fighting for one girl. Let us turn the trend so that we have to think first whether to offer them entry visas to our continent as they are doing to us. Let us unite Africa together so that we strive to live a better tomorrow. We should use our minerals and other rich resources as assets, deposit them in our own banks "African Banks" and when they need them, then we can all sit at the same table with due respect for meaningful negotiations and hence transactions on the African Continent.

FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY – MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
