| Publisher Description: What did US President Donald Trump mean in January 2018 when he referred to the states in Africa as a "s*******"? In Why #DonaldTrump is #great for #Africa the authors, in this compact study, examine six decades of "independence" in Africa and arrive at a conclusion not dissimilar to President Trump's. Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe and Lakeson Okwuonicha expose 62 years of fake developmentalism during which the African humanity has generated an expansive capital resource heritage that should sustain its very existence and transformation but instead exports vast amounts of these resources year in, year out, to a voracious, insatiable EuroConqueror league state system. This state system is complicit with "marionette" leaderships in Africa both of whom are committed to ensuring an Africa defined by incapacitated and incompetent states or "countries" perpetually at war with their peoples.The authors conclude by welcoming a characteristically ebullient Trump intervention that speaks directly to the outcome of 6 decades of this system of subjugation. Ekwe-Ekwe and Okwuonicha insist on a free Africa based on each constituent people's right to exercise their own self-determination to realise their own transformatory vision of life, liberty, peace and promise. Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe is a specialist on the state and genocide and wars in Africa. Lakeson Okwuonicha is an African peoples-centred scholar who lives in Biafra.AFRICAN RENAISSANCE Cover Design Mr Leroy Cristof |
