“A Common Language is essential for the unity and survival of any nation, for language is the medium through which people are enabled to commonly communicate and form the basis for their interactions with each other. A Common Government is essential for the unity and survival of any nation, for government is the medium through which The Will of The People is established and enforced, and the resources of The Land are effectively administered and utilized. A Common Army is essential for the unity and survival of any nation, for the army is the medium through which the lives of The People and the sovereignty of The Land are preserved and protected.

We lack a Common Language, Government and Army in Africa, and therefore we lack the necessary ingredients to function as One Nation.

The Continent of Africa is presently comprised of 54 separate so-called “African nations” with over 60 different principal languages, and each of these so-called “African nations” have their own governments and armies. The problem with this situation is that neither one of these so-called “African nations” have the necessary economic and military might to protect themselves against any serious economic embargo or military attack by any European nation, which renders all 54 of these so-called “African nations” ineffective as nations.

The Continent of Africa is 11,700,000 square miles of land with a population of approximately 643,000,000 People, and given these statistics it is clear that we have more than enough People and Land to grow and build virtually anything that we so desire, and be able to thoroughly defend and protect it. So, why don’t we?

The answer is clear: (1) We lack the necessary Unity As A People to live and fight together for our own common protection and interests; and (2) We lack the necessary Knowledge and Skills to design and build our own modern infrastructures and technologies. Therefore, the fact that we have hundreds of millions of African People, and millions of square miles of Land is worthless. Why? Because numbers are worthless in the absence of Unity Among A People, and Land is worthless in the absence of The People having knowledge of how to develop it.

There is a definite comparison that can be made between the individual organism of A Human Body and the collective organism of A Nation, for just as The Human Body must function as one composite whole in harmony with itself to maintain a healthy state of existence, so must A Nation function as one composite whole in harmony with itself to maintain a healthy state of existence. Also, just as once The Human Body fails to function properly it eventually falls into illness and ultimately death, so does A Nation that fails to function properly eventually fall into decline and ultimately extinction.” (pgs. 24-25)

I post these excerpts from my book (published in 1991) as a stark reminder that simply because a nation of people speaks their own language doesn’t supply them with all that they need for them to fully recover their position of Freedom, Independence and Power In The World. In fact, even after we manage to successfully do the serious work of implementing ONE COMMON CONTINENTWIDE AFRICAN LANGUAGE AMONG OURSELVES, there will still be far more work that needs to be done, and far more changes that we’re going to have to make within ourselves, before we’ll be able to FULLY LIBERATE OURSELVES from all foreign domination, control and destruction at the hands of the multiple foreign enemy nations who presently rule over us (be they Europeans, Arabs, Jews, Chinese or any other foreign predator nations). Simply stated, we must develop A WHOLISTIC APPROACH TO OUR LIBERATION STRUGGLE that encompasses all of the things that we must know and do as a people to achieve and maintain Our Liberation – NOT JUST ONE OR TWO THINGS.
