African borders are artificial- Let's dismantle them.

In 1884, European powers set it upon themselves to divide Africa into 54 different units. Under German chancellor Otto Von Bismarck, they set it upon themselves to conquer Africa, and steal all our natural resources. To this day, this exploitation still goes on.

Do you know why many African countries are a mess. Because we were a forced union of tribes. Tribes that had never coexisted before suddenly found themselves under one roof. That is why elections in Africa are a mess because it is always about ethnic competition rather than ideology. Had we naturally ethno culturally evolved, then the various African kingdoms such as Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali, Songhai would have merged into an African superstate, and create one homogeneous Africa, much like the Chinese, Japanese, or Western Europeans.

It is now time that we must dismantle those artificial boundaries. Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, said that he needs 35 visas to travel around Africa. In fact, it is easier for a foreigner to travel around Africa than an African himself.

Once we abolish the artificial boundaries, we would be united. There ewould be nothing that we would not be able to achieve. We have all the resources right here but since our states are too fragile and unstable, the Western imperial powers manipulate us and oppress us. It has been so for the last 500 years.
