AFRICA THE ORIGIN OF DEMOCRACY

Is the government of people by people for the people are one among the good definition of democracy. This was given by the late Abraham Lincoln means that democracy is all about bringing power to the hands of the people (majority).

The history shows that this culture was born in ancient Greeks societies and it has been there days before christ.

The two aforementioned contributors of development of democracy ; The Greeks and Lincoln both were the theoretical disciples of democracy and not the perfect people of being example as democratic allied.

How Africa is the origin of democracy

This democracy which says that was born in ancient Greece was practically applied in ancient African society centuries before anywhere else in the globe.

Traditionally African societies had their ways of solving their problems and making decisions for their development by discussions for peace and freedom until they get the solution or decisions then they come up with the agreement. These are very important keys for people’s power and the real democracy must obey this culture.

In African local languages there is no word or terminology which is equivalent to the word ‘class’. In any democratic society is not easy to see the antagonistic classes if this democracy is in practice and not in words and theories. So the absence of the equivalent word to the word class in African local languages proves that African societies were classless society (no antagonistic classes).

History prove the fact that in Africa there were kings ruled their empires in democratic ways years before coming of the whites in the continent. This also can be proved by the book of Clutton-Brock.In his book Nyasaland he described the African tradition of making decision through the method of discussion then agreement.Clutton used the good phrase that “They talk till they agree”(Julius Nyerere Freedom and Unity-1965).This gives more clarification on African tradition of democracy.

How the western societies denied the principles of real democracy

And even though the westerners (Euro-centric scholars) were the one who claimed to be the founders of democracy and its operation, their life in reality were very far from democracy. The British used a lot of money for the royal family’s expenditures and that money are the taxes of the poor people who working hard at day and night to pay tax for the development of all people. In Britain this continues up to the present.

Abraham Lincoln the one who formed a perfect definition of democracy created such definition while he was in a society which is full of racism and moreover it was a slave- owning society. So Greeks and Lincoln preached for what they did not practiced.

Ancient Greeks also neither practiced nor originated it. In the book of Professor Innocent Onyewuenyi (African the origin of Greeks Philosophy) he described the history of political development by comparing ancient societies of Greek, near east and Africa. In chapter 4 pg137 the book states that(some interpretations are mine)The conflicts among the ancient Greek states caused by the corruption of the ruling class. The nobles oppressed the peasants (majority) class by appropriating their lands. So there were two antagonistic classes existed in ancient Greek societies, the haves and the haves not.

He continued; In Egypt (Africa) the government met the needs of the people by irrigating the countryside and ensuring the growth of abundant of food for the satisfaction of all”.

So there were no conflicts in Africa due to the good government which was there for the benefits of all people contrary to the Greeks whose stand for the tiny minority of the rich only. So for the fact above, Democracy is an African culture which has been copied by the western societies because of its betterment.

And what they do in the present?

In present we may see how this democracy which means majority power and welfare of the people has been taken vice versa and been being practiced in opposite direction.

A good example is when president Mugabe of Zimbabwe decided to take the land from the tiny white minority to the overwhelming majority of the Africans of Zimbabwe the western world resisted against him for his democratic attempt of favoring the rights of the majority. The Zimbabweans suffered for the economic crisis due to the economic sanctions from western world which was a punishment to Mugabe due to his action for his people.

In Libya the situation is the same.NATO invaded the land and killed innocent people only because of a single person who they claimed that he kills his own people. So how can you stop killings by killings? And in fact the late Gadaffi was one among the good example of the African leaders who ruled his country for the benefits of all Libyans. Welfare of the people was the main issue practiced by his government.

Unexpectedly western countries and their media started to propagate that he was a dictator and he kill his own people. So they invaded the land and arresting him while he ruled the country for the benefits of all people which is the key centre of democracy.

About the same time western countries now especially in USA the people striking because of poor standard of living which make them to suffer under capitalism. The Occupy Wall Street(the American Awakening or the 99 percenters)is the good example that most of the western governments hypocritically they pretend to preach human right and democracy while they don’t practice it in reality. The people in strike claim that, neither Republican nor Democrats has been stand for the majority welfare; they say both stands for the few lobbyists (rich men) and their interests by any means necessary.

They preach peace but they are the ones who organized both first and second world war. Is the war democracy? Or is it human right? They pretend to preach human rights but they killed thousands of the Afghans for searching Osama Bin Laden. They killed thousands of Iraq people while they were looking for a one person Saddam Hussein..

Now Africa must WAKE UP! We must go back to the truth after a long time of being fooled by their media and western miss-education.

We must say no to their propaganda and lies. We are the fathers of Democracy. Africa is the birth place of democracy and human rights because we practiced it before them. For the western people to teach us about democracy is like the blind man to be a driving school teacher.

JOURNALISTRICS

Their greatest weapon is gun, but a pen is mine

The weapon I use is mightier than the sword

That’s y Malcolm appreciated my work and Twain proved that we are so powerful by his own words

Jeff Jefferson said he can’t run US with no media because it is through this he communicated with his people  of interior

You can stop me to breath but you can’t stop the ink which I’m already bleed through my bic

Wrong doers treat me hash and do revenge but I don’t care, every week am still leak my news like Asange

And even though they can confine me for more than thirty years like Mumia I will still write what do I know and report to them live from death raw

I’m not a watch dog as some fools state

I refuse! In any serious state I’ am the fourth estate

From government which is the first and others who are the rest, I am still the best because in their relation to one another they use me to communicate

People say the war is so dangerous because am the one who shows them how this war is

They say teachers and doctors strikes are so terrible because I reported them how strikes was

But get the picture about a day when all the journalists and media expertise will strike

It will be terrible, and No one will get to know about this strike because the one to report the strike is in the strike

In this morning you will watch your TV but you see nothing

Put your radio on but there is neither voice nor song to hear and all newspapers tables in your home town are empty

The president will not know how the people goes n the people not know what the president does

This career is nothing but to speak the truth.  And by any means necessary I must seek for the proves

So I can go Lake Victoria and ask the water the truth about the death of Kabendera

Or I can go and ask Ground Zero the truth about the9 eleven act of terror

Media will always empower the information because the information is power

So wherever you see the journalists don’t treat them as the men of underground because they are the ones who make this world go round
