Africa Has Lost Her Philosophy by PriscillaGabby(f): 1:37pm On Jun 16, 2015
We tend to speak like them
Act like them
Dress like them
Nollywood these days is nothing far from Hollywood
Funny enough my android keyboard recognizes Hollywood more
We have completely borrowed everything from the Westerners
Yet we claim to have a philosophy
Where is this philosophy found in us?
When we have completely lost everything that makes us indigenous
Mother Africa cries out
For originality
For nativity
For us
She wants to be heard
In the South
The North
The East
The West
And in the minds of her offsprings
She wants her philosophy back
