Words of wisdom, this man has latently mentored me and many others by extension. Live long and keep prospering Chief. I revere you and hope for the rare opportunity of meeting you someday in life. HBD and let the greedy man learn from this.
A sober reflection into the African situation reveals a mixture miseducation and failed leadership with misplaced priorities. Honestly, many African leaders are into political entrepreneurship. Being selfish is holy, but danger is with greed. #CivicRevolutionAfrik
Most African leaders appear to be fighting for the course of African liberation but are not in reality. This is because, most African leaders are nothing but "domesticated imperialists". African youth must wake up to reality.

We are agents of Africa's revolution. We are all as good as we are able to make ourselves. We cannot beg ourselves out of poverty rather, we must take responsibility for our own destiny as Africans.

Pan Africanism is a needed necessary catalyst for the development of our continent. Freedom is not given but acquired and this means that the struggle continues. And the death of Pan Africanism is the death of African liberation. Pan Africanism is life for Africa.

In human society, an expansion in the economy leads eventually to a change in social relations,(Rodney). This is the reason Africans are always treated as second class citizens by the advanced worlds.
Dr Walter Rodney was in deed a whole library burnt to the ground.
#RodneyLives
Rodney, " development cannot be seen purely as an economic affair but rather as an overall social process which is dependent upon the outcome of man's efforts to deal with his natural environment". We must strive as a people.
