How comes the world looks down on Africans. It is not just Europeans that look down on us. The Arabs too, and the Chinese. Did you know that there was also slave trade to the Arab world, but they were castrated. Did you know that our sisters are working in slave conditions in the Arab world and yet we do nothing about it. There passports are confisticated as soon as they land in the airport, and there employers can do anything to them and their government won't do anything?
Why are we copying the European the Western culture too much. We worship there movies. We know their football clubs yet we don't know ours. We know Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, yet we don't know Enyimba, Motema Pembe, Gor Mahia, Mamelodi Sundowns. This is why we cannot go far in football.
Why have we copied European education system without even blinking an eye. We know about their geniuses like Isaac Newton, Leonardo Da Vinci, Shakespeare but we do not know our own Philip Emeagwali, Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka among others. We mistreat our geniuses until they give up and go abroad.
Why do we tolerate nonesense from our politicians. We elect traitors instead of Patriots. Behind every African President is a power broker sitting somewhere in Europe or America yet they lie to us that they are fighting for us. This should stop if we are to reclaim our place in the world.
