Reasons Why Africa Should Embrace Socialism Inorder To Develop. by Nobody: 5:20pm On Aug 21, 2016
AFRICA IS IN REVOLT. From East to West, from North to South, the peoples of this great Continent are arising to claim their birthright that has been stolen.
The imperialist Powers and the White minorities are being forced to give up the land and the natural resources. Africans are uniting in powerful national liberation movements and trade unions.
....
The imperialists are trying to prolong their rule.
They send soldiers to shoot down the people.
They try to bribe the people's leaders. When that does not work they arrest and deport them on framed-up charges. They invent faked 'treason' charges and 'massacre' plots. They promise half independence, or self-government on the instalment plan.

....

These methods cannot succeed. Africa is on the march for freedom, her people are awake, and nothing can stop them from reaching their goal: government of Africa by Africans for Africans. The imperialist powers must quit Africa. The White minorities must accept the condition of equality and give up their ill-gotten privileges.
....
What shape will the new Africa take? Will it be capitalist, like Western Europe and America? Or socialist, like Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union and China ? That is something the peoples of this Continent will have to answer for themselves.
It is a big question.
....
Let us look at the two systems.
TWO SYSTEMS
We know capitalism in Africa. We have seen it and suffered under it.
Under capitalism, the land, the natural resources and the industries, built up by the hands of the workers, belong to private owners or companies. Each owner is producing not for the public good but for his private profit. He pays as little wages as he can and wants to take as much as possible for himself.
Take a capitalist who is making shoes in a factory. He is not worried about the people who are barefoot.
He wants to make a lot of money and get rich.
All the profit he makes comes out of the exploitation of the workers, for all value comes from labour. Capitalism means the exploitation of man by man.
.....
Socialism is different. All the means of production - the land, the mines, factories and so on - belong to the Government as a whole.
Production is planned. The aim is to see that everyone gets good food to eat, clothes to wear, houses to live in.
The aim of production and of society, is to see that people are happy and comfortable, that they are highly educated and cultured.
The worker knows that no capitalist profits from his labour.
Government Own All Industries, Companies and Services in the country.
Example, All phones that will be used in Nigeria will be produced by a govt. Phone industry in Abuja.. Nothing like a foreign phone companies like Tecno or Samsung etc.
The country goes ahead quickly because development is properly planned. Socialism means the abolition of exploitation.
....
Experience has proved that socialism is the most suitable method of quickly developing countries which are economically backward.
.....
In ten short years, socialism and Communist leadership have transformed China from a land of terrible backwardness, illiteracy and poverty, to a land of flourishing industry and agriculture, of advanced education and progress.
India and China won freedom from imperialist rule at about the same time. But India chose the capitalist road; China the socialist road. Today China has far outstripped India in economic progress.
....
WHY THE WESTERN IMPERIALISTS HATE SOCIALISM IN AFRICA.
If Africa kicks out Capitalism and embrace socialism.
1. There will be a fast rise in Local made products by Govt. Industries.
2. Multinationals who are with imperalist mission will be kicked out.
3. Diversification of Economy is a Sure Certainty in Socialism.
4. The gap between the Rich and the Poor will be Drawn close.
5. Importation of many foreign products will stop.
6. Value of Currency will be strong.
7. Employment opportunities will skyrocket.
I can go on and on.
Africa countries like Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana etc should give Socialism a chance.

Not a thing of Buhari.

Socialism was working for Ghana under Kwame Krumah then until the Western evil CIA fought him off power.
.. Gaddafi tried it in Libya, USA CIA eliminated him and destabilised Libya.
Same thing in Venezuela during the reign of Hugo Chavez.

just like its working for venezuela ehh?
so is it until you start crossing boarder to buy foodstuff before you know that socialism can never work?
what you must understand is that socialism ONLY LOOKS GOOD IN THEORY. it can NEVER work in practise.
not when we have humans in charge, because whether you like it or not, everybody has greed in them no matter how holy they may look
i can only trust socialism (and to an extent communism) to work if the government where all run by Artificial Intelligence.

The West are not our problem neither is Socialism the solution.

We are a problem to ourselves.

Check out how the British handled Scottish secessionists and how a tribe whose ancestor was cast out of heaven threatens war against Biafrans on a daily basis.

Will you attribute that to Western Imperialism. angry

Socialism should be thought of with the black man's thinking in context . that white man has been able to devise plans to utilize black to achieve a common goal.. I see us lacking in that aspect. Also It's a very dangerous thing when Socialism is in place and there is no political will and vision for the nation.. Resistance is eminent. Not to talk of the powers that be that will be fighting against if you have your game right. Like kwame nkrumah and Gaddafi... But I can see that there was sporadic development under this system. Using Ghana and libya as a car study.. We need a grand plan as a nation and continent.. Strong policies and will to back it up and and a grand scheme to let (control) the masses pivot in that direction.. Unconsciously.. But to achieve a positive conscious awakening

Is it the British that will support a referendum or the nations that makes up Nigeria that will seek for referendum.

Besides

Is it the British that told Buhari to arrest Nnamdi Kanu.?


Pls leave the whites allow.
