This is a worthy analytical essay contextualising the magnitude and nature of the problem facing Africa today as it can only be examined by a top African historian.
It also brings to focus how African scholars analyses are ignored whilel western scholars are honoured for commenting on issues already analysed by Africans. A bit like crediting the discovery of the source of River Niger to a European, as if Africans living in the banks for millenia were ignorant that a river passed by them!
