(The Guardian) – When African states gained independence, the continent’s new leaders agreed to respect the old colonial borders to avoid endless wars. But separatist movements still abound.



It should be once every nations and nationalities become free and manage their political and economic affaires chances to form one united states of Africa is in evitable.Thus I support all those who want have independence particularly those traped in Ethiopian empire ,the brand name for genocides and denying rights of Africans.
“When African states gained independence, the continent’s new leaders agreed to respect the old colonial borders to avoid endless wars.”
Yes it was necessary at that particular moment when the new and weak war weary frigile states wanted to avoid another new round of conflicts and wars the out come of which might be highly unpredictatble for every one.
But to think and argue that this particular pragmatic solution of that period is a permanent state of nature that must be lasting to the end of the planet earth amounts to be against nature and the natural transformations and self renewals of socities, communities and nations inorder to continue the balanced and equitable survivals of all on this planet earth.
Conditions of societies and terms of existances change constantly and so human relations must adjust and keep changing in this dynamic world of ours where constsnt changes are the only lasting and permanent phenomena.
For example, the leaders of the liberation/decolonization days were nationalists who wanted to remove oppression, slavery, inequalities, exploitations, injustices, colonizations, etc. And the people gave them the benefits of the doubt and overwheming supports.
But in due time and after testing power and growing too rich and too fat, these same early liberaters became self centered reactionaries, turning around and naming themselves by themselves, “presidents and prime ministers for life” and then oppressing their own people even more than the colonialists whom they have replaced with the sole support of the people themselves. This inhuman statuquo should not and can not be sustainable for ever but needs to be chnaged for good of all humanity and socities if peace, prosperities and justice for all must prevail.
There are only two alternative solutions to this un avoidable natural dynamical change.
1. All of these groups having genuine grievances and demands should be included and INCLUDED FULLY through the genuine and open democratic institutions where every one shares EQUALLY the political, economic, governances, etc. of the countries and communities concerned.
2. Alternatively, all of these excluded communities and nations should have their own independent state and independent and independent self governing overnments so that conflicts may be eliminated through mutual accomodation and resources distribution and better channeling in developments and building human welfares and well beings on this common planets.
Why play always sefish and distructive “Zero-Sum game” where only the strongest wins and the winner takes all while we can play the so called positive and interactive mutually beneficial games known as “N-Sume game” where every one wines and then brings all the peace. We also need to remember the social and political fact of life that today,s Strong man/government will be tomorrow’s weak man/government while the weak can become stronger in turn. Change is the ONLY permanent phenomena!
