1. One of the reasons we are poor as Africans is: we are not using our own template to accumulate wealth.

Look at it this way: the white man successfully taught us that whatever is African is not suitable for consumption...

2. Even removed our small grains n replaced with maize( did u know our staple food isnt even native to us?)

They thoroughly brainwashed our minds of the love of anything African n in the end, we are just a bunch of people who simply are animated filing cabinets.
3. So yes, we may make money bt we never translate that to wealth coz what we were taught isnt growing it coz we hv forgotten how we used to grow it ourselves.

Even our writers always write about some rich African who at his death, his children where left with nothing.
4. We also have that habit of writing bad about polygamy n how wealth failed to survive it's owner.... U see, we dont have African Heroes.... We make them evil
We are the only people who spend a whole week everyday in church asking for blessings

5. We threw away the basic tenets that wld hv helped us overcome most of our problems n hv failed to turn away from the imposed systems n yet we call ourselves free or independent.
