SHITHOLE RE-ENGINEERING AND BLAME GAMES. BY: Agyemang Duah Kweku
Coon, sellout, uncle tom, Trump supporter and a bunch of bizarre words have been my alias the past few weeks after Trump made his vile comment, there are somethings we need to realize so as to be able to rise above this filth and disrespect expressed towards us by the west. Let me fill you in on an open secret.
America, France, Belgium and Portugal have been the main cause and in most cases still are the main causes of the destabilization of most countries in Africa, mostly through the removal of revolutionary leaders who seek to help their respective countries get off their knees. The above is an example of excuses given by individuals who are outraged by the shithole comment and still wish to live like ostriches. Do you think everyone isn't outraged by this comment from a shithead?
We live here in our various countries like these harms occurred and occur in a vacuum, never without an insider from the motherland and never without the approval of the citizenry.
Let's take a cue from the following case studies.
Patrice Lumumba: First democratically elected prime minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), was assassinated on 17 January, 1961 less than seven months after he was sworn in. This crime was a joint action of two inter-related assassination plots by the American and Belgian governments, which used Congolese men including Patrice's own best friend (Joseph Mobutu) and a Belgian execution squad to carry out this heinous deed.
NB: I won't delve into the details, do the research on your own.
Thomas Sankara: was a military captain from Burkina Faso, revolutionarist, pan-Africanist and President of Burkina Faso from 1983 to 1987. On 15 October 1987, Sankara was killed by a radical armed group with twelve other military officials in a coup d'état organised by his former colleague Blaise Compaoré. Jeopardizing relationship with former clonial master and neighboring country Ivory Coast was Compaoré's reason for Sankara's assassination.
Prince Johnson, a former Liberian warlord allied to Charles Taylor, told Liberia's Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) that it was engineered by Charles Taylor who of course was serving a couple of super powers.
I wanted to proceed with Kwame Nkrumah, Steve Biko, Eduardo Mondlane, Amílcar Cabral and Samora Micheal and give explanations on why UN is shit, why understanding geopolitics is important and how after this post i might be loosing visa privileges to a number of countries therefore i might be borrowing Hotep Abeku Adams's since we look alike but my mum says my banku and pepper with fried fish is ready so i suggest you go read about these guys yourselves. While at it, read about Abdul Nasser and the suez crises, France involvement in the Rwandan Genocide, How and why Botswana seems to be working out just fine and the headache known as Sudan.
Let me leave with a quote by Thomas Sankara whom i am sure lots of you have never head about but actually had the guts to call me a sellout.
"While revolutionaries as individuals can be murdered, you cannot kill ideas." Thomas Sankara
