What hope for Africa and the third developing world

There are certain things that I need to set straight. Zimbabwe alongside the majority of the developing world was colonised for long stretches of their recent history. We were disenfranchised second-class Citizens of our own nations. We provided cheap or forced labour in our own nations and the profits of our turmoil were expatriated to foreign presently developed nations of the world. This was our reality.

Persons like the late Great Joshua Nkomo desired to negotiate a peaceful transition from colonialism to democratic rule of the majority fruitlessly. Then young persons revolted against talk and took up arms to forcibly negotiate the transition of power from the white minority who even after independence constituted less than 1% of the population of Zimbabwe yet owned over 70 % of the land of which most of it was the productive land of the nation.

After crippling the economy through guerrilla attacks on the systems sustaining the white settler colonial regime, the freedom fighters were allowed to vote for a leader of their choice. This was a noble feat which ushered in a Great Luminary and African Visionary Leader of the marginalised persons of Zimbabwe President Robert Gabriel(Man of God) Mugabe in 1980.

The freedom obtained was political. This meant now Africans could lead line Ministries and sit in Parliament crafting laws and policies that would rewrite their own futures. So, after many threats to totally take full ownership of our resources, the Zimbabwean nation decided to reclaim its soils from the few whites who had killed many blacks to grab it from them through legislation like Land apportionment Act and other suchlike legislation. They used Legislation to legalise a criminality and a crime against humanity as their history will testify, in the resistance they gave themselves, when Great men like Abraham Lincoln presided over them.

God used King Cyrus’ Legislative Authority for the reconstruction of His Temple in Jerusalem.

“ Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,

² Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The Lord God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.” Ezra1:1-2

 So, upon gaining Independence, the new government has tried to craft policies that are reflective of the new dispensation. 51/49% Indigenisation policy is one such policy. This new policy crafted by a Sovereign Government  to redress the ills that had characterised colonial rule has been outlawed by the West and they have used their authority variously to ensure it does not succeed.

I am amazed at the naivety of recent Africans, as they have not been of any help to a Comrade. The liberation struggle was fought by Africans with camps in the territories of their peers. Yet, the current crop of Africans are so selfish to the extent of throwing one of their own to the dogs to be ravaged as they look on. Where did the spirit that tied us together to suffer the harshness of the bush together go? Former Nigerian President Obasanjo came to Zimbabwe pretending to support our readmission to the Commonwealth grouping of former colonies, that pay homage to the former coloniser to receive whatever falls off her table, after she has finished eating what she has looted from our resources. This is the African mind-set. It is so corrupted to the extent that they for peanuts will endure the “monkey” title.

Where is our self-respect? The policy that Pesident Mugabe is talking about will liberate our African and third world children. Yet, the ones that are supposed to go to the ECONOMIC BUSH have become so used to left-overs to the extent that they cannot endure the ECONOMIC BUSH’s hardships for the future.

If the present African generation had lived in the times of Tongogara, Chitepo, Chikerema, JZ Moyo, Dumiso Dabengwa, Robert Mugabe, Joice Mujuru, Emmersn Munangagwa; we would still be carrying a pass to go to town, and we still would not be allowed into the areas that were supposed to be residences for migrant workers, as we wait for 1000 years from the UdI of Ian Smith. Someone heard Ian Smith say this, ‘A blackman will never rule Rhodesia in the next 1000 years.” Upon hearing that David’s blood boiled inside him and he decided to take on the fake giant.

^“20 Early in the morning David left the flock in the care of a shepherd, loaded up and set out, as Jesse had directed. He reached the camp as the army was going out to its battle positions, shouting the war cry. ²¹ Israel and the Philistines were drawing up their lines facing each other. ²² David left his things with the keeper of supplies, ran to the battle lines and asked his brothers how they were. ²³ As he was talking with them, Goliath, the Philistine champion from Gath, stepped out from his lines and shouted his usual defiance, and David heard it. ²⁴ Whenever the Israelites saw the man, they all fled from him in great fear.

²⁵ Now the Israelites had been saying, “Do you see how this man keeps coming out? He comes out to defy Israel. The king will give great wealth to the man who kills him. He will also give him his daughter in marriage and will exempt his family from taxes in Israel.”

²⁶ David asked the men standing near him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?” 1 Samuel 17:20-27

 goriyati fell. Today we are independent because of SACRIFICE.

I heard someone say, “which other nation has a policy like Zimbabwe?” I thought, “How many nations had independence before Ghana?” So, should we suffer injustice because Zambia is accommodating those that failed to loot our resources because we used our political Independence constructively for the future? Is that a leader speaking? You are a most self-serving, selfish generation of greedy people that are not worthy of the generational Calling we are called to. You claim to be educated, yet you teach service to former colonisers, so that they loot more. Is that what we got independence for? We should have remained colonised then. Independence means the right of self-determination.

Even the leaders are now amazing. They create the policy and then loot the coffers. So, it is an era of the devil unrestrained. God bless the future generation to release themselves from this mindset of satanism through Christ Jesus. Amen.
