It breaks my heart when I see an African and the African nations wasting away. The worst colonization is not what took place in the past when the White men invaded our lands, forcefully took our people to Europe for hard labour, stigmatizingly named us Africa, systematically took our lands from us and strategically brain washed us to believe that Africa and the Africans needs Europe to survive; no we don’t need them, rather they need us. The worst colonization is the colonization of human mind and heart; and that is exactly what Europe and the Europeans have done to us.
No nation under heaven is a friend or lover of another nation. Every nation lies and pretends to be friends, but their friendship level is all artificial. Deep down in their heart, they are both seeking for opportunities to eat each other up; and of all geographical continents in the world, Africa and Africans are the most friendly yet, the most foolish of all.
In the past twenty two years of my life, I’ve read over Two Thousand, Eight Hundred and Twenty Five (2,825) biographies and I have discovered that the worst enemy of a person’s potential is formal education and false beliefs. Yet, it was this same education and Christian/Islamic faith that the developed world brought to us, handed them over to us and took everything that belonged to us.
Whoever controls your thinking controls your mind. And whoever controls your mind, controls your life and whoever controls your life automatically controls your resources.
As it was said; to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey.
I love the translation that says; don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey?
Africa and Africans might be physically free as slaves, but Africa and Africans are still slaves in mind and in their thinking.
Again I say, man’s worst enemy is formal education and faith (religion). The Whites have successfully made us to believe that that is the only way to achieve and attain greatness and we have all believed the lies and we are now living below our potentials.
Most of the people I have read their biographies, were people that broke every laws of creation, set new records for living, high standards for their industries and are people with little or no formal education whatsoever.
Thomas Edison went to school for just two days and he invented what people that spent all their lives in the four walls of educational institutions could not accomplish.
Michael Jackson never went to school. Yet, he pioneered and invented the greatest musical hits of all times, made himself the living god of music and entertainment. Therefore was no one in the history of mankind that had done what he did before him, and I doubt it if there will ever be anyone to do likewise after him.
Cosmas Maduka, the owner and the chairman of Coscharis Group of Company only went to school for two days; after which his father died and that was the end of his opportunity to acquire formal education. He was handed over to his uncle to learn trade and today, a boy with two days Primary One class experience is now a man; I mean a man that people with PhDs have no other choice than to say “yes sir” to.
The maker of man is not God. Everything you need, to be what and all you want to be is already deposited in you. The maker of any man is the thinking of his heart; for as he thinks in his heart, so is he. You become what you think of yourself.
Africa and Africans are where we are because of the way we think. I read a comment of an African lady on social media saying; “I am British, not an African”. I laughed because that is the highest level of delusion. The fact that you are born in a White man’s country and have their citizenship doesn’t make you one of them. If you are, they will not castigate or ostracized you. They will treat you equally but you know as much as the rest of the world, that the story is something else.
I don’t have any bad blood against the White man and I will never. The most foolish person is a person that sees opportunity and never takes advantage of it. The White man saw opportunities in Africa and took them. I respect them for that. It is fine. The question is what do our African brothers and sisters see in Africa?
Nothing but to LOOT.
All the lootings that are going on in Africa was engineered by smart and intelligent White men. Steal the money in your country, and we will help you keep them in our banks here. So, an African person loots the money that the White paid us for looting our countries and continent of our mineral resources years ago, then keeps the same loot in the bank in the same country where the White man resides. Oh my goodness, the White man automatically paid nothing. He just took our mineral resources for nothing.
With one hand, he paid for what he had looted; on the other hand, he took back what he had paid. At the end of it all, he paid nothing.
Africa, wake up.
No wonder Jesus Christ said; THE MASTER COMMENDED THE UNJUST STEWARD BECAUSE HE HAD DEALT SHREWDLY. For THE SONS OF THIS WORLD ARE MORE SHREWD IN THEIR GENERATION THAN THE SONS OF LIGHT. “And I say to you, MAKE FRIENDS FOR YOURSELVES BY UNRIGHTEOUS MAMMON, THAT WHEN YOU FAIL, THEY MAY RECEIVE YOU INTO AN EVERLASTING HOME.
He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?
Another translation says; here’s a surprise: THE MASTER PRAISED THE CROOKED MANAGER!
And why?
BECAUSE HE KNEW HOW TO LOOK AFTER HIMSELF. STREETWISE PEOPLE ARE SMARTER IN THIS REGARD THAN LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS. THEY ARE ON CONSTANT ALERT, LOOKING FOR ANGLES, SURVIVING BY THEIR WITS.
I WANT YOU TO BE SMART IN THE SAME WAY – BUT FOR WHAT IS RIGHT – USING EVERY ADVERSITY TO STIMULATE YOU TO CREATIVE SURVIVAL, TO CONCENTRATE YOUR ATTENTION ON THE BARE ESSENTIALS, SO YOU WILL LIVE, REALLY LIVE, AND NOT COMPLACENTLY JUST GET BY ON GOOD BEHAVIOR.”
God Sees Behind Appearances. Jesus went on to make these comments: If you are honest in small things, you will be honest in big things; if you are a crook in small things, you will be a crook in big things. If you are not honest in small jobs, who will put you in charge of the store?
Another translation says; the master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. I tell you, USE WORLDLY WEALTH TO GAIN FRIENDS FOR YOURSELVES, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings. “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own?
So many people are just getting by on good behavior; my friend, good behavior doesn’t put food on the table, rather get smart, get creative and stay focused.
The Europeans that we Africans are complaining about are smart and creative in their thinking and they stayed focused on their missions and intentions. They don’t bend their rules for you. They bend yours to fit in into their own missions. Sometimes, ruthlessness can be the only way for surviving if you don’t want to die before your time.
There are some developed countries in the world that their citizens don’t need visa to enter any African country. What a shame on all our African prisoners that called themselves leaders. If an African man needs visa to enter a developed country, then the citizens of the developed countries coming to any country in Africa should also acquire Visa. My country is my country not yours, and if you treat me as a second class citizen in your country, I see no reason why I should treat you as a first class citizen in my own country. As Jesus Christ said; in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
Everyone in Asian countries understands English language well and speaks very fluently, but they will never communicate with you in English. They will communicate with you in their language and it’s up to you if you want to understand their own language or not. You need them, they don’t need you. They understand and speaks English very well to protect themselves from the fraudulent acts of the English speaking individuals, and the same goes with the German, Russians, and France. They all speak their languages and teaches in schools with their languages including science subjects.
But in Africa, our government forces us to learn and speak the language of our colonial masters, it is okay for us to fail the subject that has to do with our language during examinations, but it is compulsory for us to pass the subject that has to do with the colonial master.
What a shame.
Africa and Africans needs no foreign allies to develop our continent. Africans especially Nigerians, have the highest number of PhDs in the world, yet they are neither wealthy nor their influence anything to write home about.
A Nigerian bought over a national airport in the United Kingdom; such a person should be appointed not elected to be the president of Nigeria. I strongly believe the economy will grow and the lives of the citizens will take a new dimension.
It is high time we re-examine ourselves, re-evaluate our thinking, and re-program our mindset.
The solution to Africa and Africans challenges is in the hands of the Africans themselves both home and abroad; free born or born slave it doesn’t matter.
Mark my word; one day, one person will rise up in Europe and begin to wipe off the Blacks in Europe. Trace your steps back to where your forefathers came from and begin to help the country to develop.
Globalization is a mindset. Get real my dear friend.
I leave you with the word of the Lord to prophet Hosea saying;
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you; because you have forgotten the law, I also will forget your children.
If you don’t want your children to suffer what you have suffered, do something now to secure their future, stating from your country of origin.
