  I have never understood the purpose of this so-called Commonwealth from the African point of view.
  
  What do African countries and their colonial masters have in common, except the shared history of Africa being colonized. Why then would Africa still be fraternizing with her former colonial masters, when it is abundantly clear that Africa derives nothing of substance from this association.
  
  It goes without saying that: this so called Commonwealth is nothing else but a face-lift for the former British Empire which is very much alive. And we thought our colonial masters left? They are still with us under a different name. Hence, African countries must exit this so called Commonwealth if they value their freedom.

  HAS THE INCLUSIVE COMMONWEALTH BEEN OF HELP IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE,POTABLE WATER,OVERHEAD FACILITIES,ENERGY,SHELTER, ECONOMIC GROWTH,JOBS AND INCOME TO PROPEL BETTER LIVING CONDITIONS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH COUNTRIES IN CARRIBEAN AND AFRICA.
  
  ITS ALMOST SIXTY YEARS, AND MEMBER COUNTRIS OF THE COMMONWEALTH DO HAVE THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE STILL IN SHAMBLES AND ITS CITIZENS IN TOWNS, URBAN CENTRES AND THE RURAL AREAS CONTINUE TO LIVE IN MUD AND HUT STRUCTURES STRETCHING BEYOND THE HORIZON WITTHOUT BASIC AMENITIES.
  
  IT IS TIME WE KNOW,WHERE PRAISES ARE DUE AND WHERE ECONOMIC BACKWARDNESS, UNDERDEVOLPMENT AND POVERTTY ARE ALSO POINTED OUT.
  
  IF GOD PRAISES WHAT ARE MEN.
