Ghana's Enemies Of Progress.

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 Source: MP

Now who wouldn't be envious of Ghana? After all isn't she beautiful, gifted, kind hearted, cultured and not to forget wealthy? Wasn't she the first amongst many to stand up and demand her freedom from her colonial oppressors, even against the advise of some of her sons who felt that she wasn't ready for her emancipation? See, the black queen of Africa who wears a crown decorated with the blacks stars of the night had her patience run out. And when she spoke with the thunder, grace and authority from both heaven and earth, the colonialists had to pack up with their army and flee or else.

Ghanaians are well educated, so well educated that the country is renowned for its educated fools rather than its fools who are educated. Now for those in the dark about the difference between the two, I shall explain.

The difference between a fool who is educated and an educated fool is that, an educated fool doesn't see common sense as a friend at all. An educated fool cannot think and because he/she cannot think he/she cannot feel either. It's therefore safe to say that an educated fool is both mentally and emotionally paralysed. Moreover when an educated fool is confronted with a challenge which requires sense and sensibility to solve, he/she just embarks on logical solutions as if the challenge is logical. And when confronted with matters which concerns precision, he/she just embarks on approximations, speculations and wild guesses. The world of an educated fool is pretty cold indeed, because he/she shares nothing, cares for no one and thinks about no one.

A fool who is educated is someone whom most would call lucky. Because he/she does not believe in luck. He/she simply makes his/her own luck. In other words, a fool who is educated sticks to what he/she has or has been given, and develop it until it becomes more than enough to make himself/herself worthy of being measured as equal amongst his/her own peers. Unfortunately enough for Ghana, she has more educated fools parading around than fools who are educated.

These educated fools with their Western earned degrees look black on the outside, but think white on the inside. As a matter of fact, they are not any different from our former colonial oppressors. The use their blackness to identify themselves with our wealth and its interest to them, but not necessarily with our best interest in mind. See, during the slave-trade, you had your nigger and your Blackman. The nigger served as a buffer between the European slave-traders and the war-mongering kings, who would sell their captives of war to the Europeans in exchange for ammunitions and bullshit. The nigger was also the deal-maker between these two, which meant that the more deal he made, the higher his cut and profit margin.

The reason why the nigger was able to work with the European slave-traders for so long was because, the nigger hated himself and everything about him. He had a treasurous nature, which made him an ideal person to work with. He also hated his country and didn't want to see it prosper. The more the country remained torn due to acts or similar acts of war, the better he felt. Thus exposing the nigger as a divider.

If there is anybody or anything which a nigger loves the most, then that must be the sight of poverty or poverty stricken people. And if there is anything or anybody which a nigger hates, then that must be a fool who is educated. Simply put, educated fools are all niggers who hate progress. And a country like Ghana could do well without them.
