EVE-EVIL-DEVIL. It was found that the first wife of Adam, Lilitha, created demons to fight against God about what he gave to Adam, and that he has more powers than hers. Yes, history repeated itself in South Africa when women in 1956 marched for 50/50 rights. When the dawn of democracy began, marriages fell apart, and they took away the role of men as providers. Women’s power supersede men’s power, and single parenting went high, which produced a fatherless generation. Gender Based Violence became high as a result, and suicide cases among men rose.

In the era of democracy, money oiled the wheel of life, but it lost value with life being expensive because people misinterpreted freedom as getting things free, whereas freedom means every man should stand up for himself. Nothing is free, and capitalism was promoted in the past.

Entitlement destroyed men’s ability to hustle, which produced a welfare society. Capitalism made people materialistic, up to the point where they failed to share the wealth. That is how an unequal distribution of wealth made the rich richer and the poor poorer.

People misinterpreted democracy as paradise, even though it meant every citizen is part of the government. It produced survival of the fittest, wherein an individual eats or becomes eaten. This democracy made many people suffer mental illnesses because they could not adapt to the changes of the system. Many people even believe that yesteryears were better than current days, given the corruption and the fact that justice favours the rich, and the poor are surviving in an abject poverty similar to the story of the children of Israel who said the oppression in Egypt was better than the new promised-land.

Most people became observers instead of participants in the fight against the things that attack Africa. Freedom, which is meant for everyone to take responsibility, failed many as they suffered from a dependency syndrome. The calendar of Africa became Westernised, favouring Christianity, and everything became based on in, from schools, to public holidays, and even the workplaces. This happened even though South Africa says all religions are the same, and each person must practise a religion of their choice.

The wealth of Africa, which is its mineral resources, consist of gold, diamond, iron, ore, coal, asbestos, copper, and tobacco. Africa was attacked and became colonised by the European countries who made African forefathers suffer racism and slavery for 300 years. Even though African countries won independence, they are still oppressed economically, given that our political leaders are controlled by people behind the scenes.

Systems in schools taught African children to be job seekers, other than to be job creators. As a result, we have a lack of skills, and leadership is a crisis in Africa. Poverty rose because our political leaders are still clueless about how to run the administration of resources effectively and efficiently, given that they have no credentials of being leaders.

They attacked our cultures because Africans’ biggest education came from their culture. The opening of mines in big cities forced men to leave villages and their families behind, and boys were not mentored by their biological fathers through the stages of life, and this is why many fatherless boys went into gangsterism. Schools were developed, but they never developed learners’ gifts, talents, and financial literacy. Instead, they used corruption as a prerequisite to achieving higher positions.

Many people blamed religion as a source of their poor status. The wealth of Africa was in agriculture, mainly depending on livestock, and money was for the Jewish in order for them to survive. Black Economic Empowerment, Affirmative Action, and Land Expropriation without Compensation are policies that were created to balance equality, but it turned to be a fallacy. Instead, it gave birth to corruption and poverty in the form of food insecurity. They then gave a selfish generation Coronavirus, which worsened Africa stability.
