Let's get straight to it; Dr. Arikana Chihombori-Quao just set the stage on fire with one of the most explosive speeches Africa has witnessed in recent years. This wasn’t your run-of-the-mill diplomatic talk; no, it was a scorching, no-holds-barred call to action that left African leaders visibly shaken. Imagine a thunderstorm rolling into a quiet town; the kind that doesn’t just pass through but leaves a trail of uprooted trees and shattered windows. That’s the kind of impact Dr. Arikana had when she took the podium in South Africa.Now, let’s break down the speech that’s got everyone talking. Dr. Arikana wasn't content with merely pointing fingers at the age-old Western powers we’ve grown used to blaming for Africa’s woes. Instead, she flipped the script in a way that no one saw coming; she put African leaders directly in the hot seat. In a room filled with some of the most influential figures on the continent, she pulled no punches, accusing these leaders of being the gatekeepers of Africa's misery. According to her, it’s not just foreign powers that are bleeding Africa dry; it’s the very people who claim to protect it.Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channe....l/UC2vy1ztN3iredhD_o ============================Sources:1. https://www.international.ucla.....edu/africa/event/14 2. https://howlround.com/puppets-....and-politics-south-a 3. https://afrolegends.com/2021/1....0/11/amilcar-cabral- 4. https://www.lemonde.fr/en/le-m....onde-africa/article/ 5. https://allafrica.com/stories/202308100100.html 6. https://ipisresearch.be/wp-con....tent/uploads/2009/08 7. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/383881770_Dependency_syndrome_within_Africa's_international_relations_A_hindrance_to_sustainable_development_in_Afric 8. https://moneyfmzambia.com/zamb....ias-travesty-with-th 9. https://www.theguardian.com/ne....ws/2021/jan/14/rhode 10. https://news.trust.org/item/20140715174658-x1i3b/ 11. https://www.progressiveeducati....on.org/spearheading- like, comment, subscribe, and ring the bell!
