Africa is a continent with lots of scars that are marks from its long and bitter struggle for freedom. Slavery, One party dictatorship, Colonialism, Military Coups and Rule, and Apartheid all survived through suppression of freedom. Africans are like all normal human beings, born with strong adaptation trait and human dignity whose core value remains to be freedom. Though it might not be general but I know too well that real Africans don't accept the humiliation and suppression of their humanity nationally. It's a precious value we have enjoyed, still enjoying and wanting to enjoy to the fullest. During the Rivonia Trial in 1964, Nelson Mandela used one of his famous quotes, that:
“I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons will live together in harmony with equal opportunities. It always an ideal which I hope to live for, and to see realised. But, if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die, Nelson Mandela”
Ammunition is a symbol for war. Peacefully, Our voice is the greatest weapon we got, the more we use it: the world realise the the power we possess. Our voices can shake the unshakables, beat the unbeaten. Africa and Africans deserve nothing less than the rest of the human family.
AFRICA, THE WORLD NEEDS TO HEAR OUR VOICES AS A TOOL FOR FREEDOM FIGHT.
REAL AFRICANS, DON'T SHUT UP.

Truly true africans don't shut up, it just a pity the ones who are supposed to be talking louder are the ones whom have made africa seem like a breeding ground for unrepentant clowns
