A People Called Afrika

             grandchildren of those who were the perpetrators of the same.
             They call this modern subservience all manner of names like
             military alliances, economic alliances etc. But we call it fool-
             ishness. Why? Is it not foolish to think that the superiority
             complex of the white man and his domineering ideology that
             created slavery and colonialism in the first place has suddenly
             disappeared from the hearts of the children of those who cre-
             ated it and trained them in it? Afrikan governments make alli-
             ances with foreign wickedness, and call it whatever name they
             want, but clearly it is all done to maintain the idea of a constant
             personal cash flow, while giving crumbs to the very citizens they
             claim to serve. If that were not true, a “sixty year old indepen-
             dent Afrika” should be thriving right now, instead of begging.


             Meaning, you can fight corruption all you want and try to
             pray it away until you are blue in the face and you can ar-
             rest every corrupt government official or private officer and
             even execute them, but it will not stop… For until you begin
             to deal with the evil desires in the hearts of men, starting from
             the Heads of State and Government and their pursuit of ev-
             er-elusive happiness (which in our opinion is not happiness in
             the real sense, but a sense of transient emotional fulfillment,
             which has nothing to do with the true meaning of life) then we
             can’t begin to talk about the removal of corruption in Afrika.
             As long as a man will consider his own personal desires and com-
             fort to be of priority over and above the needs of his neighbor,
             as long as man will consider his neighbor worthy of being down-
             trodden and ridiculed and doomed to servitude; as long as a
             man will consider himself to be superior to another, not regard-
             ing God as his God – corruption will rule and will reign freely.
