Africa by Africans for Africans

When will we ever be independent?

The end of the colonial era marked a new beggining, a fresh start. A country lead by its own people instead of that foreigners. How independed are we, really?

Ever heard of Neo-colonialism?

Would we ever be independent? With this so called democracy being preached everywhere, when you have to almost do everything according to the West, or else your government is considered to be a dictatorship. Do elections solve the main issues in Africa? We have had change of leaders from term to term, but the story in most of Africa remain the same.



Is it that we are too selfish to think of others? Maybe we'll just blame it on poverty, since we are all very poor whoever gets the post has to enrich themselves. And may be they(leaders) feel the need to do so, as the lack of security for thier family and the generation to come lead them to do just that. Thus making us all victims of the same manipulation Steem used by the West.Whoever is in power gets a few millions for himself and his family ofcourse to sell the country riches.



Who is to blame, for the failure to come up?

We need to move forward and look for the ways to progress, but again until we figure out why we've been failing, we won't be able to advance and be able to compete in this global economy.
