Africa is the greatest continent of all times but our greatness has faded away for 4000 years and now I think it is time we rekindle the candle and give light to Africa.
It is believed and studied in history that the first archeological men were found in Africa. So Africa we boasts for being the origin of human race,civilisation and civilization. We boast as the origin of man. Again Africa has the greatest wonders of the world i.e Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. This pyramid has existed for 4500 years and it has been the tallest building of complex constructions for over 3800 years in history. Also Africans have been the smartest human beings of all times. Do you know why? It is because there was a tool of political power and a weapon called an African Club or just a Club. In local languages it is called knobkierie in Southern Africa and Rungu in Eastern Africa.
An African club
An African Club
The structure of an African club that was developed from wood closely looks like a sketch of the Map of Africa. The top part of African Club looks like the western and northern Africa combined. Then the bottom part of an African Club looks like the southern,eastern and middle parts of Africa combined. This tool was developed by our ancestors even before the map of Africa and rest of the continents were drawn. This is for a fact to boast brothers and sisters in Africa.
This are just a few things to show you my fellow African brother and sister that we should not be looked down to or underestimated. Never again should you feel unproud to be an African and never again should you be looked upon as unsmart whether mentally or physically. Africa is the origin of knowledge and education. Also it is the richest continent with resources. What the nations from the west did was to hijack our knowledge, bulgered our resources i.e gold and diamond and left us scattered in small nations called countries. But now after 50 years I wish to see Africans come together again.
For those who have studied history of migration of African before precolonial period, they realize that people the some people who settled in east africa migrated from western,southern and northern africa and vice versa. All this implies that Africa was once united,without boundary barriers and that is why our ancestors were able to move across africa and settle anywhere.
I wish to see Africans great again and I know for a fact there is nothing we miss to power our economies. We have wealth and riches in terms of resources and manpower and all we need is the united will power of togetherness to make Africa Prosperous. The answer to our problems as African needs us to provide solutions by ourselves.
It is high time we as Africans shall stand up to provide answers to our problems. Let's first work to bring peace in war stricken areas like south Sudan,Somali,Libya and other unstable regions. Let us integrate our cultures. It is time not to fight against one another but let us build one another. Let us not leave to see our own brothers drown in Mediterranean sea as they seek green grasses abroad because our corrupt systems have stagnated our economic growth leaving simple country men with no choice but seek green pastures yonder. It is time for Africa to unite. Wipe away corruption. Give life to economic growth. It is time for Africa to use its rich resources not to enrich white men economy but enrich fellow African brothers by improving the livelihood and build good transport,communication and financial integrated systems from the north to the south of africa, from the east to the west of africa and all across africa. It is time we come together as one family no matter the skin colour whether black,brown or yellow. It is time we put aside our religion differences for a better future of Africa. It is time we stop losing our best intellectual to west countries through brain drain to west opportunities that have cost us waste. It is time for Africa to wake up and take the mantle of responsibly knowing the bright future of our continent needs us to unite, stop corruption, promote peace and harmony and promote economic prosperity.
Long live Africa,
Long live Africans brothers and sisters.
Make Africa prosperous
Yours faithful Pan African
