Are Black People Incapable Of Ruling Themselves? by ThatsONYI: 12:58pm On Dec 01, 2022
shocked


I feel so sad, even though I hate to ask this question but the mentality of our people is so disgraceful and shameful.

"Are black people incapable of ruling themselves?" I ask this question because this is one of the lies, most racist (or maybe harsh truth tellers) say - go check out the comments in quora. During the apartheid in South Africa, the elites claimed the blacks were incapable of leadership which is the reason - the power remained with the minority.

What exactly is wrong with this generation? Is it colonisation (which sadly runs deep in our brains)? What exactly is wrong? Our ancestors had empires, kingdoms, riches - what happened to our present society?

Look at what happened to Rhodesia, after whites were chased away, look at Haiti, Nigeria etc... What's wrong with us?

If someone can be campaigning for Tinubu when Peter Obi is in the race, you should know why black people will always be on the least rung of the ladder.

Black people are not a serious race.

Check out Orania (an only Afrikaans community in SA).. check them out and see how progressive they are!

I don't even see Mandela as their hero, they've got their own history.. if a COMMUNITY can do this, what happened to 200 million people in Nigeria?

I'm proud of being a human with much melanin but the way "black people" behave - makes me wanna make "white babies" so my descendants wouldn't be in the midst of fôôls?

I mean, our ancestors fought in what they believed in - what the hèll is wrong with us?

How can Japan that isolated themselves from West culture hundreds of years ago - fight a war and their cities were decimated with nuclear weapons be doing so well?

How can ETHIOPIA that has survived for thousands of years and withstood the Italians... How are they NOT top Africa powers? How??

Question you should asked is did blacks rules themselves before whites came ?

Can they rule themselves effectively after the ye white left ? If not for what changed ? Simple structure

Most African countries are just countries trying to run like a nation it can never work

Countries are not same as nations and models for running it are different

So understanding that would be when Africa would begin to progress

Take Nigeria for example most states are just mini Nigeria ...Tiv sees Benue as a means to dominate idoma , igala see kogi as means to dominate the rest

Untill Nigeria become federation with ethnic nationalities as the federating units nothing much would change

I don't understand their mentality! Go abroad for medical trip and we've got UK and US taking away our doctors! Why's it so hard?

Yes, you steal public funds and you can't even deliver?? Bro wtf is going on? I mean, America was built from scratch by Europeans, African slaves, native Americans... So what's happening to us?

Black people are well capable of ruling themselves, they were ruling themselves before the white man came

The problem is that after the white man came and created "colonial centres" called countries, of which Nigeria is one of them, joined together people who have nothing in common, and asked them to rule themselves

That was a recipe for disaster

Crazy how these black people defend the borders created by colonisation, it's so sad (I feel like crying while typing this)..

Can't we think outside the box? Can't they see American democracy, their states and how power is divided? What about the English that brought this evil upon us?

They've got their democracy working for them, despite how Irish people hates English people - they are still in one country but different nations!

I blame lord lugard for the ungodly amalgamation. Truth is that two can't work together except they agree... Nigeria was never meant to be a single entity because of the complexity of Its ethno/religious components and inclinations. We need to go back to regionalism since we can't practice true Federalism.

Then, why are they defending this "colonial centers" with everything in them? I understand that different wars have occurred in Africa because of these "artificial boundaries"..

In Europe, boundaries have been adjusted many time but Africans choose to hold on, strongly to this poison slowly driving towards the extinction of the history of our greatness; that's why others believe Africans are infèrior!

Why are we holding on, to artificial boundaries created over a hundred years ago?

Blacks ruled Benin empire
Blacks led the Republican kingdoms of Igbo nation.
Blacks ruled the Oyo empire

People also say, blacks used to rule Spain and part of Europe... What happened? How did we forget everything? Was it amnesia? COLONISATION?

Re: Are Black People Incapable Of Ruling Themselves? by Mindcure: 1:59pm On Dec 01, 2022
The problem is the Leadership and the Followership.

They leaders have institutionalized structural imbalance, especially in Nigeria, where they likes of MC Oluoma are a henchmen to one drug lord running for president of this great country. Where one hell of a greedy creature controls the IGR of state, to the detriment of suffering masses.

A system where Right is seen as a Privilege. And the followers are reduced to nothing by the wickedness of the likes of thiefnubus.

Blind Followership, and crumbs to urchins.

I tell people that difference in languages and cultures doesn't determine the progress of a country.
There are three essential values that drive the progress of a country: fairness, equity and justice. You see the black man, they don't understand what those mean. A good example is Nigeria.

In fact, even in a family, community or tribe where everyone speaks the same language, without those three ingredients, there will never be peace and progress among them.

Good thing this is coming from you, honestly all this apc/pdp/lp struggles is nonsense without addressing the fundamental issues holding us back:

1. changing the present wasteful style of govt that is only concerned with sharing monthly allocation and paying salaries to a non-productive workforce.
2. serious investments in education, security and healthcare. Without that we would always be far behind the rest.
