African Solutions for African Problems

[@queenthomas2374]

Congratulations Michelle, Excellent presentation!!!

[@r2dege]

African solutions? Good. But extreme discretion is required. People would love to undermine any effort at Africans getting it right!

[@NorBdelta]

Mostly the African leaders themselves, enriching themselves and creating hostile environments for wealth production.

[@alexsandrodesouzagoncalves3373]

Good post, Africa does not need communism (nor should it), and the free market with stable democratic regimes can make its countries prosper.

[@itzlordbrown7010]

from the presentation i agree with George Ayittey that china condition of worrking with AFRICA coutries is expliotive. however i see that as what every economical and self-loved country will do. Africa countries are to be blamed for being explioted by countries like china and usa. And I will conclude that until African countries come to realise that they are the prroblem themselves and come to the point of finding solution the problem will forever linder in their land.

The cardinal question is 'why africa susceptible to the dictatorial rulers? Why each and every individual get to the power turn into a brutal dictator that takes the wealth of the whole nation.

[@MK-lm6hb]

... because there is no appreciation of such concepts in Africa as common good (res publica), nation or state as the manifestation of the will of the people.

[@TalentedTenth]

I agree with everything he says except one thing. He never calls out American, French and British agitators in installing despots and grifters. Be honest about that part or it affects people’s ability to hear your message sir.

[@billy-ps7jz]

Yeah I agree

💯💯💯

[@crisisactorr]

Don’t Africans have the agency and ability to defend themselves against these agitators? We need to stop playing the victim?

[@ibnzuhr8722]

@@crisisactorr 100% in agreement. One minute, we are great etc etc., next minute we should ascribe some blame if not all to foreign powers. Which is it? Aren't we capable of running our affairs and be accountable?

[@BaiSamuelkamara]

I definitely agree with you because these are the drifters who are controlling these puppets and oppressed their own people

[@ivankivinge2987]

Rest in peace prof

[@sandal_thong8631]

I wonder what influence he and his ideas had after this video?

[@Geraldbux0401]

I definitely think things could have been taken slower than how they went. We could thought carefully about the way forward.

[@ceegeeprogress482]

Get rid of the money system in Africa and invest in Agraculture . Game over to greedy Europe

[@alexgibson2871]

Fascinating. Is it really possible to talk of this chief/Council /assembly as across whole of Africa? How would it relate to larger clan/tribe?

[@sandal_thong8631]

I did like the idea of a council of elders uniting the opposition parties in another of his videos.

[@rikondjakaramata5678]

Leave Africa alone you have nothing to offer Africa. Africa is One just like America is One.

[@leoguarknight1588]

Africa is not One and definitely not like the US

[@spikedpsycho2383]

35,000 years of tribal barbarity, only encompass 300 years Western Colonialism. When Colonialism ended, Africa reverted back to ....what it was doing before.

You're just arrogant ignoramus

[@DonaldG-qq4ol]

@0:22 don't say; the occupiers are gone. europeans and other non Black African ethnic groups own land, large companies. Military bases are there. So DON'T LIE even though it's your nature

[@mdumashesha8620]

Well said...they still here and has bad attitude,i don't like dem

[@DonaldG-qq4ol]

@@mdumashesha8620 I hope we in the u.s.a. and Diaspora can come to the African Land of our Ancestors in the millions and together make Africa great again. Thank you

[@DonaldG-qq4ol]

@Mr. Anonymous I gave you 👍 Even though I've learned he m. ghandi felt about Black people

[@DonaldG-qq4ol]

@Mr. Anonymous perhaps damage done by him in earlier years that exist today. ?Do you want to defend east indians that behave badly towards African people on the African continent and in india also

[@crisisactorr]

Can’t Africans defend themselves against these Europeans? Don’t they have the agency to say no?

[@joshdiaz3190]

colonists countries should encourage the African leaders to reform and then offer protection

[@sandal_thong8631]

Very disappointed to hear his take being against microcredit. I've heard about this idea of the African collective. But like Marxist-communism, it doesn't properly give incentive for individual achievement. That person should be able to improve their immediate condition and that of their immediate family. Instead, how many in the tribe do they have to share his success with? His book _Defeating Dictators_ seems to have a better plan of action for improving Africa.

[@MegaDieyoung]

We had no technology, no literacy, no navigation, no shipping, no architecture, no astronomy, no clue about anything really. We had no wheel. But we had culture. So does yogurt.

You're describing the British and the Gauls (French) before they came into contact with the Romans.

[@quincysthillaire]

George is a neoliberal

[@EvangIsaac]

I completely disagree with this man on the issue of one party system in Africa. There was no record of any African country that created only one party system and adopted the model of soviet system after the colonial rule. 99% of African countries were colonized by the French, British and Belgium and just before these countries obtained their independence, several political parties were formed by the indigenous people to take over from the colonial masters. This guy's assertion that one party system were formed in majority of countries in Africa after independence is a fallacy. It is a big lie! Every country in Africa has multi-political parties. The major problem in Africa is CORRUPTION!!!!

[@MrRsj84]

TheHour ofHardTruth So don't stop there; what the hell do you think is the solution then?! 😲

[@EvangIsaac]

+r s j: SOLUTION? You should have been able to figure that out in your mind. Capital punishment and that must be Public execution for any public office holder found to have engaged in embezzling public funds. It will serve as a deterrent to outgoing and incoming government. The problem in Africa is corruption and lawlessness period!

[@MrRsj84]

TheHour ofHardTruth And what cultivated the corruption in the first place?! It was disloyalty! Dr. Umar Johnson himself said that self-hatred of the black race is the elephant in the room! 😤

[@africanlyricsworld8208]

#TheHour of HardTruth.... Hello you shud research hard only 14 countries are democratic in Africa and my Country Zambia became a one party state for more than a decade.

Frelimo in Mozambique, what are you talking about
