What Africa needs now, not Politics

15/11/2024

Once, there was Kwame Ture. Today, there are many who carry his spirit forward.
On November 15, 1998, this son of Africa joined the ancestors. His teachings and memories are forever cherished.

For Africa to truly thrive, we as Africans must take ownership of our continent. Ownership fosters responsibility, dedication, and commitment to change. The African Continental Unity Party (ACUP) embodies this spirit; it’s not owned by any one person, but by all of us—the collective voice of Africans committed to progress.

As a member, you play a crucial role. Stand up and take ownership of this movement. Lead others to it, inspire your community, and help grow a support base that empowers us to create real change in our societies. Every new supporter strengthens our capacity to act and improves our power to shape our future.

Africa: The Hungry Cow that Produces Enough Milk to Feed the World

What many of us may not be aware of is that the global economic system is designed and set up to keep Africa in an unending poverty. This global economic system which was designed at the time which Africa as a whole was under colonization of exploiters was set up to flourish at the back of free exploitations of all kinds at the back of Africa.

This system which Africa did not participate in designing it but required to operate within it without a question has made it possible for Africa as a continent become more like a hungry cow that is required to continuously produce enough milk to feed the world. At this stage, the cow is hungry not because she has no food within her yard, nor because she is incapable of generating enough food on her table. The simple truth is that this cow is hungry because an iron lock has been placed on her head to cover her mouth. At the same time, her children are threatened with their lives to accept what they obviously know to be unacceptable. Hence, the hungry cow we see today, as our continent continue to pile up debt to push our children into slavery of debt.

Sadly, those who milk Africa every day are not just greedy people who seek selfish benefit from her riches; they are also wicked individuals who join forces to starve her so they can derive happiness and pleasure from witnessing her suffering and be in pain just like those who shoot animals not for food but for games and pleasure.

Let us start by giving deep consideration to the following: For more than 60 years of independence, no African country has been allowed to trade its naturally endowed resources in its own sovereign currency. This singular act prevents the true value of those resources from being translated into economic development and empowerment on the African continent.

Any attempt by an African leader to break this global economic system—deliberately designed and instituted to keep Africa in unending poverty—is met with assassination or removal from power. This has forced power-holders on the African continent to remain quiet, watching as the future of the next generation is destroyed. This real threat did not start with Patrice Lumumba of DR Congo or Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso, nor did it end with the sad removal and assassination of our dear brother Gaddafi. All of us are victims, and anyone seeking to challenge this system must be aware of the true consequences.

Today, the African masses are made to believe that they are suffering solely because of the corrupt nature of their leaders. However, our underdevelopment is a result of something far greater than corruption which is itself only a by-product of the global exploitation scheme. After all, corruption is even more abundant in the global system than on the African continent. I need not to point direct fingers, but I know very well of what I am talking about.

Here is one of the real reasons why Africa, despite her huge natural and human resources, continues to remain poor and may remain so for a very long time until the general general masses develop the consciousness that point us to mass liberation over a saviour-leader sickness:

When we (Africa) need a car or anything from the colonizers, we work hard to earn their currency to pay for our wants. This means that whatever we demand from them, we pay for with our labour or energy equal in value to what we are taking from them. In turn, this creates value in their economies. When we fail to work in their economies to obtain their currencies, we have only the option of going to the global financial market to increase the supply of our currency to demand theirs. When this happens, we create demand for their currency as a commodity, and as the demand for their currencies increases, so does their value (higher exchange rate for them), while ours loses value in return.

On the other hand, when the world (colonizers and exploiters) need our valuable resources, we are told that we need foreign exchange. As a result, we allow them to print their valueless papers (in the form of money) to exchange for our valuable resources. This means they take away our resources without creating any value in our economies. It is like telling them that freely print your paper money and come for our gold and once they do so they take in value that allows their paper money to have value because it is being backed by the huge value they take away freely from Africa.

Imagine if Africa tells the world, “When you need our gold, diamonds, oil, and other resources, you must pay for them in our African currencies.” This would mean that the world would have to come and work on the African continent in order to earn our currency to demand our valuable resources (because they do not legally have the sovereign right to print our currencies and use them), and this will create real values such as expertise knowledge, infrastructure, technology and human energy into the African economy. Otherwise, they would have to go to the global financial market to demand our currency, leading to an increase in its value rather than the continous depreciation we see in African currencies each day.

At this stage, let me point out that it costs less than 50 cents to print a $100 bill or €100 note, but it costs more than $100 to mine just 2 grams of gold. So how can we genuinely exchange 2 grams of gold for 50 cents if not for exploitation? If we are using our currency to exchange our resources, then we can genuinely receive the true value of it and retain that in our economy

If we allow China, America, the UK, or any other country to demand our resources with their paper money, we are essentially saying we have no control over those resources, as these countries can freely print any amount of their currency to take our valuable resources. Our economies can generate true value from our vast resources only when our currencies are backed by those resources and are exchanged in our own sovereign currencies.

The truth is, if other nations are allowed to print money to buy our resources, then Africa should also be able to print our own money to buy whatever we need from their economy without resistance, we should be able to print our own sovereign currency and use it to pay off all the debt we owe them. If not, then they must work to earn our currency before using it to buy our resources, just as we work for theirs to buy their goods.

The African Continental Unity Party-ACUP is the people's agenda and the government of the ACUP shall stand with the people to defend our continent and correct this injustice and imbalance. We shall stand in unity to build Africa to become a golden home of global powerbase that is able to protect every African and our common interest.

–Share this post to create the needed awareness of what we must do to liberate ourselves. The liberation of our continent and our people worldwide can only be achieved by the masses, not our leaders, who face constant threats whenever they work for our interests rather than the oppressor's.

We are appealing to you to join the ACUP for us to collectively build a force intelligence, dedication, and consistency towards rebuilding Africa to become a strong global powerbase.

Botswana 🇧🇼: Africa, the land of Old and Great People of the Universe. A United Africa a Great Commodity for Humanity of the World

02/11/2024

What is your memory of this? Don't lie, you were not born.

02/11/2024

From the beginning, we were a people of nation building. We developed our own technologies and designed our nations and empires. We constructed our ideas into reality to help solve our problems and create a better life for all. How come? Today, we are broken and it seems we are not in the position to fix our broken society.

We now find ourselves in a world where we are often looking for saviours to lead us toward progress and prosperity. Who sold us this idea? We must acknowledge that the rebuilding of Africa rests on the shoulders of each and every one of us. It is not a burden we can shift onto others or entrusted solely to the efforts of an individual. This is a shared responsibility that demands our collective action and dedication. Together, we can shape a brighter future for our beloved continent.

Africa's resurgence requires a paradigm shift in our mindset. Instead of waiting for external forces or relying on a singular figure to rescue us from our challenges, we must recognize that the power for change lies within us. It is time to foster a sense of ownership and agency, understanding that the fate of Africa rests on our collective determination and unwavering commitment to progress.

Where Are You, Children of Africa?

In 1963, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Kwame Nkrumah made a resounding appeal for the future of our continent. He called for a United Africa—a vision of hope, strength, and self-reliance. But tragically, his dream was derailed. In that fateful meeting, too many who claimed to be our leaders chose self-interest over the common good. They divided us along lines drawn by our colonizers—those who once exploited us and still look to benefit from our divisions.

Thus, the Organization of African Unity (OAU) was born, not as the powerful force for unity we needed, but as a compromised institution, toothless and dependent. When our former colonizers in Europe formed the European Union, we followed suit, rebranding as the African Union (AU) but failing to break the chains of dependency. Today, the AU stands as a symbol of lost potential—an assembly of leaders who often act as mere errand boys, representing foreign interests rather than the people of Africa.

We gather at AU meetings as one continent, but the unity evaporates the moment the doors close. We scatter to become servants of others—China, the Commonwealth, France, and beyond. It is time for a new era, a new dawn for Africa! We must break these invisible chains and stand tall as one continent, united in purpose and action.

Africa is home to 1.3 billion people—a powerful, vibrant market with the potential to rival any in the world. Yet, instead of investing in our own continent, many of us seek foreign shores, building economies that are not our own. We are a continent rich in resources: our land is fertile, our minerals abundant, and our people resilient and innovative. Why, then, do we continue to import what we can produce? Why do we surrender our future for temporary comforts abroad?

The time has come for us to rise above the mindset of dependency. Africa must produce, create, and innovate on its own terms. We need to establish industries, manufacture goods, and build economies that are self-sufficient. Let us harness the power of our population and natural wealth, and make Africa a leader in technology, agriculture, education, and culture. We must reclaim our legacy as a global powerhouse—a center of civilization, wisdom, and progress as we once were.

Where are you, the doctors, scientists, engineers, educators, lawyers, and thinkers of Africa? Where are you, the farmers who nourish the land, the artists who inspire, the athletes who make us proud, the bankers who drive our economies, and the builders of our future? Where are you, Africans at home and in the diaspora?

Now is the moment to answer the call. The African Continental Unity Party (ACUP) is leading the charge to rebuild, reunify, and reclaim our destiny. We seek not just political unity, but an economic revolution that will free us from the cycle of exploitation. We aim to develop industries that serve African needs, create jobs for African youth, and establish a fair, just, and sustainable society for all Africans.

Join the Movement—The Future is Ours!
Africa’s strength lies in its people. We have the talent, the resources, and the willpower to transform our continent, but only if we act together. Now is the time to move beyond empty rhetoric and take real steps towards a united and prosperous Africa. We call upon every African, every descendant of this proud continent, to join us in this struggle for true liberation. This is not just a call—it is a demand for action, a pledge to our ancestors, and a commitment to our descendants.

The ACUP is more than a political party; it is a movement—a declaration of our right to self-determination and a stand against those who seek to divide and weaken us. Let us write a new chapter in African history, one where we are the authors of our destiny, where our unity is our strength, and where our future is our own.

Say Yes to the Call of Liberation!
Visit www.africanacup.org to learn more, or send us your inquiries at [email protected]. Together, we will build an Africa that is not just a continent, but a force to be reckoned with—a continent where our children can thrive, and where Africa’s future is determined by Africans.

Rise, Children of Africa! Unite and Lead!

Raw Materials: Is it the only thing Africa can offer the world?

Raw materials are the foundation of all economic projects. Without them, there can be no products. If you attempt to buy raw materials from China, Europe, or America, they are unlikely to sell them easily; and if they do, the prices are often exorbitant. This is because raw materials create jobs, sustain economies, and drive a nation's development and skill advancement. These resources are essential to making economic production possible. So why should any country or group sell off their raw materials to another country and stand idle, instead of utilizing these resources for their own benefit?

When raw materials are stripped from an economy, what remains? Jobs vanish, skills go undeveloped, pride is lost, and the economy is weakened. Sadly, Africa has been conditioned to undervalue its own raw materials, allowing them to be exported cheaply. Although Africa makes a substantial contribution to the global economy through these raw materials, it receives only a fraction of the output’s rewards.

The time has come for this injustice to end—not by anyone else but by the masses of Africa. Soon, Africa will reclaim what is rightfully ours, and we will no longer allow others to dictate our terms. The African Continental Unity Party (ACUP) is committed to ensuring that African education focuses on equipping African minds with the skills and technical knowledge needed to utilize Africa's resources effectively. Our first priority will be to meet the basic needs of Africans and to process these resources on African soil, creating jobs, enhancing skills, and generating wealth—with only finished products exported. Do not be deceived into thinking Africans are incapable; we have the skills and the technology to use our resources to meet the needs of our people and respond to global demands. We have all it takes to achieve scientific and technological progress. The only missing elements are vision, leadership, and political will—precisely what the ACUP brings to the table.

We are building a vision for Africa that is by Africans, for Africans, and it is our exclusive responsibility. Now is the time for action. We call on all Africans to join the ACUP and take part in this vision for a prosperous and self-sustaining Africa. At the ACUP, we value your skills, your involvement, and your contributions as essential pieces that join with the efforts of other Africans in building and sustaining a thriving Africa of our own making.

*Reclaiming Ubuntu: An Action towards building a New Africa*

We must learn to cooperate among ourselves and support one another. True success should no longer be measured by how we compare ourselves to those we call friends and family. We do not need to bring others down in order to feel uplifted.

We can rise again by learning from our past and the history of the world. But how?

Before Europeans ventured out of Europe to explore other parts of the world, European nations were locked in fierce competition and conflict over the scarce resources of their small continent. Let us not forget that the Romans colonized Germany, referring to the Germans as "the most precious property" because they were so intelligent. The same Romans colonized Britain, but instead of praise, they considered the British to be so unintelligent that they were unworthy of being used as slaves.

While Europe was embroiled in competition, colonizing itself and fighting over its limited resources, Africa was flourishing—building great kingdoms and empires founded on a profound concept called Ubuntu. Ubuntu, meaning "I am because you are," encapsulated the essence of African society: unity, cooperation, and mutual support.

When the Europeans arrived in Africa, they witnessed this beautiful concept. They quietly returned to their homeland and said to their brothers, “Why must we fight one another when we can unite, sow division elsewhere, and reap the riches of the divided?” And so, the Europeans did what was in the interest of Europe—and they did it masterfully.

From the moment the European stepped foot on African soil, he mastered the art of uniting with his brothers to form a strong, stable force that advanced his own interests and those of future generations.

But what did Africa gain from this encounter? The African saw a god in the European, saw salvation in him, and saw opportunity. Instead of uniting with his brothers, he sought to align himself with the European while keeping his fellow Africans from this "precious salvation."

From that moment, the African stopped seeking cooperation with his own people. Instead, we began competing against one another just to gain the favor of the European. In business, in governance, in every aspect of society, this is the harsh reality we face today. Ubuntu is gone, and we have become the agents of our own destruction.

This is the Africa we need to leave behind. A new Africa must be born. An Africa where its people see each other as human, where every child receives the dignity they deserve. An Africa that embraces unity, cooperation, and love for its own. This is the Africa I dream of for my son and his children.

But dreams alone will not build this new Africa. It is not enough to read this message and feel inspired. It is not enough to wish for change from the sidelines. What Africa needs is action—bold, selfless action. It requires sacrifice and the unwavering determination to work towards a shared vision.

The time has come to stop waiting for others to make the change. The future of Africa rests in the hands of those who are ready to take responsibility, to lead with Ubuntu in their hearts, and to give everything for the sake of future generations.

If you are ready to contribute to the building of this New Africa, then join today and become part of the family. It is only through your efforts, sacrifices, and contributions that we can leave behind a prosperous continent and nations for our children. Together, we can make this vision a reality.

The time to act is now.
