Dr Arikana Chihombori-Quao’s Thoughts On Colonial Legacies | The Conversation | News Central TV

Arikana Chihombori-Quao is a medical doctor and activist. She is the CEO and founder of Bell Family Medical Centers in the United States and was appointed the African Union representative to the United States of America in 2016.

Chihombori-Quao’s name trended across the African Twittersphere when a video of her speaking candidly about her take on the state of Africa and its link to colonialism went viral. This was not the first time the doctor made such remarks, but perhaps the first time her views were this widely spread among Africans both on the continent and in the diaspora.

Dr Arikana Chihombori-Quao’s thoughts on the colonial legacy of countries like France on Africa went viral earlier this month. A few weeks later, she was excused from her role as permanent AU representative to the United States of America.

Joining THE CONVERSATION today is Gbenga Aborowa, a broadcaster at News Central and Abdulateef Ahmed who is a researcher also with us at News Central to discuss her arguments and position on this.
