Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits. Educational methods include storytelling, discussion, teaching, training, and directed research. What must the African be educated on? Knowing himself/herself, values, beliefs and habits. Allowing a foreigner who doesn’t know me or understand me to teach me who am supposed to be based on directed research is just not right. We are so centered on getting directed research or some relief, after receiving it we just waste it and go back to beg for extra reliefs or education. We are here to teach people who we are not learn from people who we are and ought to be. Change they say is inevitable but what type of change are we having; is it the type of change that undervalues our values and principles and embraces what we don’t understand or it’s the change that makes us know ourselves and build us up. We need to rewrite our history, revisit by the fireside; ask kweku Ananse and tikuma to tell apetupre to sound the gong gong for all Africans to get to know their roots. Let the pilolo’s begin, the chaskele and the ampe. Let the failed elders reach out and show the current generation that they love them. Let their love teach them of their responsibilities ahead for Elders are for counsel and young men for war. Let us fight to know ourselves and build a better Africa for the new generation
