KingJaja,

Is it not time to move away from the intellectual dishonesty that continues to flow out of the ex-colonies in Africa?

The lie that is being sold to the ignorant and gullable in Europe and North America is that all the African tribes and ethnic groups lived in perfect harmony until the European colonists arrived.

The greatest contribution your generation can make is to stop the incessant resuscitation of this garbage and address the truth of history ... and move on and take responsibility for the future of your respective countries.

I expect similar accounts for the French in their ex-colonies.
