U cannot develop people,dey’ll develop themselves
Julius Nyerere
Africa’s further transformation, advancement rests acknowledgment, validation&mainstreaming of Africa’s own traditional,authentic,original,indigenous knowledge in education, policy/research making&across all sectors

It won’t be easy; for a people used to being told how to think,what to do,how to go about it.A people long subjected to intellectual guidance&directions of others(d colonial masters/aid industry/int’L news media)

But it is a task we must embark on, to progress”The task ahead of us can never, ever be greater than the power within us” JOSEPH SHABALALA South Africa choral group lady smith black mambazo founder.

We can do it. We can unlearn looking down on ourselves. We can learn to place value on our reality&knowledge. Ashante sana....
