Why Africans Still Need To ‘Go External’ #Shorts

Go ‘external’ - that’s what African nations do every time they need anything. So alleges Zimbabwean pan-African activist Brian Kagoro in this snippet from a speech he gave at a recent security symposium in Rwanda. Be it defence, finance, development - we’re dependent on our former colonisers for help. And that’s no accident. He says they left us with weak institutions that made us dependent on them - intellectually, economically and in terms of security. The old ‘divide-and-rule’ keeps striking again and again. Is he being too harsh? And if not - what’s the answer? Video credit: @Kigali Today --------------------SOCIAL----------------------- FACEBOOK - INSTAGRAM - TIKTOK - @africanstream TWITTER -
