@african_stream Find another way

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

Most governments, religions, organizations, businesses etc. Do this, they kill to get the desired outcome. What if marching and getting killed on the streets doesn't stop them? What else can be done? Do you see another way?

The next revolution should be disbanding all these colonial organizations and institutions, it's time to free the world from their shackles.#theAfricanDream #FreeAfrica #FreetheWorld

The only Race of people who have never colonized anyone.

Those coming to the dark continent should be told that we would rather be as were and civilize ourselves the African way.

JOSHUA MAPONGA: AFRICA’S SOUTH NEEDS A TRAORÉ!

The Sahel region has become emblematic of what is possible when Africans decide to smash the chains of neo-colonialism and seize their sovereignty. Incredibly inspirational has been the revolutionary leadership of Burkina Faso’s Captain Ibrahim Traoré. Africans across the continent see him as a unifying role model. Among those who think so is the pan-African Zimbabwean author and thinker Joshua Maponga. He’s just set off on a fact-finding mission to the Sahel to see what lessons the south of our continent can learn from the tremendous changes happening up there. As he says in this video, our leaders have been licking non-African boots for too long and allowing the West to set Africa’s agenda. It’s time we set our own agenda.

If there was ever anything that could make African lives better, trust and believe it would not come from any other Race. They came to take, they are still coming to take more now, they have only changed tactics. But the plan is to divide Africans then loot resources.

At this stage, we should know that anything endorsed by the colonisers for Afrikan consumption is poison to the souls of Afrikans, including the approved religion, food & education system.

At this stage, we should be vomiting what's theirs and try to rebuild ourselves.

@oloojl Being loved by the people has never prevented an assassination. Separate the two and it will make sense, also look at the stadium and then listen to the West speak on what they think of Burkina Faso.

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

History that is written VS History that is passed down as tradition or as a way of life, are complete opposites. One is dead the other lives on.

Freedom is knowing that power is given by the majority who choose to appear weak so that one may feel strong. It is also knowing that anything man made can be broken by Man. Governments, Institutions, Dictators, leaders...they are just people, given power by the masses.

@KenyaPower_Care 24hrs later no resolution to my problem. Customer care took my meter number and the mpesa transaction, how hard is it really to give me tokens that I have paid for?!! The incompetence is on another level.

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

@KenyaPower_Care Still waiting for token message from 7pm, no one from customer care is responding to me, here or in the DMs style up guys. This is very poor service delivery

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

@KenyaPower_Care Is there anyone there, i have DMd you my issue still no response. I haven't received the tokens message. Meter no. 54402693151

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

@KenyaPower_Care I have bought prepaid tokens am yet to receive them. Meter no.54402693151

[ManOfTheDay @triph1]

@AfricanHub_ Why we even involve foreigners...white people .. when we invent anything in Africa just baffles me. Africans learn to keep your mouths shut and your inventions in Africa. Away from government and corporations, let your community benefit on a large scale before it goes mainstream.

[Adémọ́lá. @OgbeniDemola]

I have decolonized my mind. I am an African first & I have learnt the truth about my history and i have unapologetically embraced my roots. I am a Pan-Africanist.

AMERICA’S GOT A PROBLEM

The United States has the highest rate of civilian gun ownership in the world, with an estimated 393 million firearms. That’s more than one gun for each of about 341 million people. It should then not come as a surprise that gun-related injuries killed 42,967 people in the United States in 2023.

Research shows a correlation between stricter gun laws and lower rates of gun violence.

However, the mainstream media doesn’t point out that, for Africans, ensuring the right of self-defence against white supremacist violence is paramount. Further, guns find their way into inner cities, where many of our people are forced to live, amplifying the danger of street violence.

The modern gun-control movement emerged after California enacted legislation in 1967 upon seeing Black Panthers wielding firearms in public to defend their communities against brutal police violence.

Some say the high rate of gun violence in the United States mirrors US military violence around the world.

Some would also say it really should not be a surprise that the United States doesn’t offer its citizens healthcare or guarantee other human rights, as the speaker, Ayishat Akanbi (@ayishat_akanbi on IG and X) mentions, because the US began as a profit-driven settler colony rather than simply as a refuge for those allegedly escaping religious persecution.

INDIAN FIRM LANDS CONTROL OF KENYA’S
MAIN AIRPORT?

Kenya’s Prime Cabinet Secretary, Musalia Mudavadi, has denied claims the country’s main airport is being sold off to foreign investors - calling it a public asset. It comes days after a senator demanded more clarity on a deal that will reportedly see Kenya lease Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) to India’s Adani Airport Holdings for 30 years - with the foreign firm set to hold 18% of shares in JKIA after that period. Senator Richard Onyonka slammed the murkiness of the deal in a TV interview, in which he also claimed that it only came to light thanks to a whistleblower contacting him. He’s demanding the Kenyan Airport Authority come clean with all the details of the deal. The airport has been in a state of disrepair and needs an upgrade, and the government is short on cash. Suspicions are mounting that the terms of the deal were too favourable to Adani.

What do you think - should Kenya be leasing out such a strategic piece of infrastructure (let alone selling it!) to a foreign player?
