The contribution works toward achieving its mentality-changing goals by
essentially providing Afrikentication lessons radiating principally
around the theme: Making African education relevant to African
liberation and progress. The linchpin of the book is that we Africans
truly need to cease dangling uselessly and reclaim our authentic roots
if we have to independently move forward. This is an objective we
clearly cannot correctly achieve when our intellectuals and universities
(among others) who are supposed to be furnishing our liberation
movements with sane policy and thought-leadership do continue in the
same old colonial way of sheepish 'theorising' that excessively indulges
in obliterating genuine African perspectives. Indigenous African
education is the way to go! An inevitable rethinking in education,
culture, and religion in Africa is recommended, basing on innovation and
critical thinking which are sure highlights of communalism, which is a
defining feature of the African way of life. The book thus harps on the
need to recentralise African values and philosophy in the freedom and
governance of the continent, as well as stressing the dire need for
unity and visionary, dedicated and patriotic leadership.
