We can agree to disagree

But stability and self sustainability is what creates great nations.

Don't always believe what you read on the news... Its just a western narrative using western indices.

the Zimbabweans believe in labor than anything


I work in the Agric sector, it is not about what I read but what I garner from the fields​. My travels gives me a clear idea where African countries have strengths over each other.

Even a Togolese youth believes in labour more than many Nigerians and that is why you have a lot of Togolese young men doing tiling jobs in Nigeria while ours are wasting away, crying their is no job!
Re: List Of African Presidents And Their Ages As At 2016 by MedicMan1role1(f): 12:36pm On May 17, 2017
that is the genuine African mentality

Nigeria is a basket case of rubbish

I have said it many times before and I will say it again, This is the reason I cant verge or vote any Youth under 40yrs for the Post of A President because the even if you have the PhDs more than Robert Mugabe, where is the years of Experience in government Administration and leadership management?? If our old leaders today are crooks, except our youths to be far more lacerating rogues out of the blues.

Dont forget, that a lot of Nigerian leaders in the past who lead Nigerians through the Military Junta in the days of their inexperience and and abject ignorance or gullibility. Even at their worse mistakes, The Nigerian and African youth of today may never strike the mark of their political and developmental exploits as we have far more fewer patriotic youths who believes in true federalism nor are Pan Africanist like the great Premier Nigerian and Pan African Leaders! Am sorry to disappoint all the self African centered youths under 40 to 50yrs! Go back to dick into history and learn from the mistakes and success of your past leaders

Since Macron won the french presidential election at age 39,we have had so many advocating that power must be handed over to the youths.Here comes the misnomer, did Macron emerge president because of his age?Definitely no.Macron won based on his credibility, competence,track record and capability. Gabriel Suswam was governor of Benue as a youth,James Ibori governed Delta state as a youth,Late Isiaka Adeleke governed Osun state in his thirties and of course Yakubu Gowon presided over Nigeria in his thirties,Yahaya Bello is there in kogi right now,what spectacular things did these youths achieve in office to make to make youthfulness the criteria for good leadership?We need leaders who can combine fear of God with competence,not necessarily youths. Content(competence)matters more than context(age)in this matter.

Young man.

He is power hungry alright, but his reign has made Zimbabwe one of the most self sufficient country in Africa, despite all the embargoes, bad media and suppression by the west.
You are just following the western narrative. Zimbabweans do not need money, and this has made the state the most crime free oasis in Africa. What is there to steal? i was in Zimbabwe and I marvelled. Very simple life and the people very happy and communal. Real African paradise.

The west don't like him cos he kicked them in the arse off their lands , so they have been sabotaging him economically and funding oppositions against him.

Robert Mugabe is tough, Africas greatest Black president. He has always secured his power democratically .. If we had more leaders like him in Africa, Africa won't be getting raped in the arse by western corporations.

Quote me when u have attained his age and still can articulate


Many Zimbos I know will disagree with you
or do you know their country more than them
Read about the ndembele people (hope I got that right the spelling) and come back to talk about Mugabe

There are 54 countries in Africa . This shows just 21 countries. That being said, using Nigeria as an example, I am not convinced that any youth can make an impact in this structure. Only very few youths understand the key issues. Some don't know that to be in power you need to do some occultic things. Some don't know that the most corrupt people in Nigeria are the civil servants . Some don't know that based on the existing structure Nigeria is in a hopeless situation. It will take a miracle to salvage Nigeria and if that miracle is going to come from an 18 or 88 year old so be it. But I am 100 percent sure that this APC government till 2023 won't change anything even though I voted for them.
so the current president of france "did some occultic-things" ?

Context is specific to Nigeria. Its either they come for you via diabolical means or by violence. If you dont believe, try to run as a Councillor, then you will know how far.

Hello, why do Africans like power this much? Must we serve the nation by force? If you are old already, millions of able youths are there to do it.

Soldier goes soldier comes, barrack remains.

The only people (Africans) who put them there are the only people (Africans) who can take them down and stop this cycle of stupidity.

The big question is, will they? Are they willing to give up their hush money (bribe), ethnic and religious bigotry? The security men and soldiers who protect these dictators, are they also willing to give up their pay/bribe and fight for freedom in hope for a better future for their children?

You see the west narrates most of the narratives in mainstream media.. I have been in the country and this people praise him. Zimbabwe is a socialist state, money is not too important but craft is gold.

You are a farmer? Do you know Nigeria imports cassava and grains from zimbabwe?

Do you know its from zimbabwe GEJ lifted his cassava bread idea.

The problem is we don't pay homage to one of our own is because majority of Africans still have their head in the white mans arse embarassed

The problem is we don't pay homage to one of our own is because majority of Africans still have their head in the white mans arse

Look at how they killed Khadaffi


1. I have been in the country and ''Zimbabweans''praise him --> The problem with such statement is, You are either lying or a Zimbabwean

2. You are a farmer? Correction ''(Are you a farmer?)''. Do you know Nigeria imports cassava and grains from zimbabwe? --> Please provide proof

3. Do you know it's from zimbabwe GEJ lifted his cassava bread idea. (? instead of ''.'') ---> Please provide proof again

4. The problem is we don't pay homage to one of our own is because the majority of Africans still have their head in the white man's arse -->

This kind of thinking is one huge problem in the Negro's mind. Therefore, by your logic, wearing western style clothes and embracing western education means we all have our heads in the white man's arse.

5. Look at how they killed Khadaffi ---> Ghadafi was never a good man nor true to his people. So you see, even though Gadhafi was a dictator who killed and tortured his own people, you still support him because his death was orchestrated by Western Powers?

Please let us hear word. Who votes for them? is it stones and rocks that go to the ballot?
If you dont like the situation of things, you change it.
All we do is complain and point out the injustice but we do absolutely nothing about it.

We put them there, we can take them out.
Power belongs with the people, we just dont know how to make use of the power we have at our disposal.

I was in Oct 2013 for 3 weeks. Amenities are not stretched and it was not hard to find out that they are majorly rural dwellers. Spent in dollars and it boosts the country's tourism cos from what i understand, their currency has been poisoned by western interests. World bank and IMF have been sanctioning him because of his indigenisation policies.

this was basically hearsay.

zimbabwe has been using cassava flour since way back as a standard. The Europeans that lived among them created very good value chain for their agricultural produce. They are almost self sustained when it comes to agricultural produce.

4.no, I am not complaining about our assimilation of their culture, but our dependency on their narrative to build our world view. he is very popular in his country and due to its a multi-tribal state, his opposition are often across that line and are funded by western interest. His tribe is a majority tribe so his stand on power is secure. His legitimacy is also rightly so because he has been democratic in his hold on power.

5. Khadaffi was a good leader to his people, and bad to foriegn interests. Its unfortunate his ways weren't pure, but a leader must know when to be kind, and also know how to use wickedness. Its the burden of their work. However, he did build a great country. He went completely mad towards the end, but it was due to he did not understand why a people he had done so much for would turn against him. He brought the whole house down on him.

Afrocentrism is an ideal... i believe in a United Africa protecting its own interests and trading freely with itself.
