The loss that brought us to neo -colonialism

At times of our lives we have learnt about the history of Africa from slavery up to colonialism our history highlight our struggle to be accepted to a position other than second hand or to be regarded less like uncivilized, battle have been fought, blood of millions were shed for a black meaning an African to get the right that he has today, to be able to enjoy the minimum liberty that he has today.

And this brings me to a question that I always ponder on which is "have you ever wondered about the secret thats our ancestors used to fight the battles?, have you ever wondered why the quest for independence that once lingered in Africans have ceased?' Or do you actually say 'it's evident that Africa is so far inferior to the rest of the world. " 

You have accepted the condition your eyes have wandered and you admired the luxuries and the lifestyle of whites . You probably are interested in knowing the secret that Nkwame and other heroes like him used not to  notice all the fancy things white had and how they conquered the so called superior class. 

Let's analyze the situation when a person is asked about his identity he states his country of birth, his name, age and gender. One of the fact that proves that a citizen belongs to a given nation is his language, culture, the love, the respect and how far he can go to defend his nation without even asking you realize that he come from the country and I reckon that if we had chance to meet people like kwame Nkrumah, Julius Nyerere, Nelson Mandela we will find that they're true citizens of Africa, then we get the answer to the question, we have lost a thing regarded as small but yet vital, we lost our " identity "with the identity went the independence, the self - relience and a position of excellence that our heroes have been seeking for long. We were blended in Africa but yet we compromised our originality to label ourselves pirate we sold our nationality to be called intellectual and advanced we sent to trash our languages, cultures and values to rent those of westerners, the price tag you give yourself is what others consider no one will raise it for you and we have labeled Africa the cheapest, the needy and the the uncivilized and that's the difference between our heroes and the youngs of this generations. Nkwame labeled Ghana worthy of independence and he got that, Mandela labeled South Africa not worthy for apartheid and he got that, Juluis labeled Tanzania not worthy of colonisation and yet he got it, what label can you give your country? Burkina Faso wasn't the richest country when Thomas Sankara refused donations from IMF he just wanted to retain his country's autonomity, yes we're inheriting an Africa full of poverty and chaos, yet it's another chance to set free the strong change maker that hides in yourself . From slavery up to colonialism strong statemens who made legacy were born, some of them came from nowhere, some came from the army and other have studied a broad but yet they remained faith to their identity and they brought light to our Africa. Maybe this neo-colonialism came to bring a NKRUMAH LIKE alive and he or she might be you, you might be the hero who will turn the tables, you might be the change makers. Don't turn off the fire in you, don't label your skin color, your language, your culture,and most importantly your nation as well as your Africa unworthy, just label the price tag that you merit and go for it, fight if it's what it take and make sure you give the maximum punch you have got, let call this revolution A RENAISSANCE OF NKRUMAH LIKE.
