Paul Kagame, born (23 October 1957) is a Rwandan politician and former military officer who has been the President of Rwanda since 2000.
In one of his media chat with pressmen in Rwanda, the president talked provokingly about how blacks berate their fellow blacks and exalts the white on all accounts. He wants Africans to have a mental revolution before addressing all other challenges.
He said:
When a French national cannot speak English, Africans respect him.
When a Spanish man can’t speak English, Africans respect him.
When a Chinese man can’t speak English, Africans respect him.
When a Russian man can’t speak English, Africans respect him.
When a Portuguese man can’t speak English, Africans respect him.
But when an African man can’t speak English, Africans consider him a joke, illiterate, dumb and stupid
That’s the level or extent of psychological damage we have suffered as a people!
We use English as a yardstick to measure the intelligence of our people, including children!
In our schools, children are made to believe they’re stupid just because they cannot speak a language alien to their ancestral route.
Africans refer to their language as VERNACULAR – what a Shame!
Dear Africans, put an end to this mental slavery.
Teach your children their mother tongue and allow the locals to feel free in speaking their native language without any stigma or prejudice.
Do not help the oppressors to extend their oppression.
The people around you need to hear this.
It’s a collective effort.
