 The wisdom of unity has long been espoused, but it wasn’t until I watched the documentary “Blood Rivals: Lions vs Buffalos” that I truly understood its significance. The documentary tells the story of a lone buffalo, attacked by a pride of lions, and how its herd came to its rescue, saving it from certain death. This powerful display of solidarity and strength in numbers is a lesson for us all, particularly for the African continent. Africa, the cradle of humanity, is rich in resources and cultural heritage, yet it remains the poorest continent in terms of economy and standard of living. We, as Africans, have contributed to our own suffering, starvation, and bloodshed. We have forgotten the sacrifices of our ancestors and the blood they shed during the slave trade. We have abandoned our cultures and traditions, embracing foreign values and norms. But it’s not too late to change course. We can learn from the buffalo, who understand that unity is power. When we stand together, we become

Growing up, I was taught to beware of individuals with unconventional appearances, such as tattoos, dreadlocks, and nonconformist hairstyles. They were labeled as dangerous and criminal-minded. However, as I matured, I realized that the genuine threat was not those who looked different, but those who wore suits and concealed their true intentions. My teacher once told me that my appearance would hinder my success, that I resembled a thug. Yet, after witnessing the cruelty and oppression perpetrated by men in suits, I am proud to embody the qualities they despise. Beneath their suits, they harbor beasts and monsters, exploiting their power to loot, steal, and rob from the vulnerable. Lucky Dube astutely observed, “They initiate wars at will, some for entertainment and personal glory, sacrificing innocent lives for their wrongdoings.” Men in suits are masters of excuses, utilizing their influence to justify their atrocities. Through personal experiences, I have learned to distrust them.

In 1 Samuel 8:5, the people asked Samuel to appoint a king to lead them, but Samuel was displeased with their request. God said, "Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king" (1 Samuel 8:7). Imagine having God as your king - what could He fail to do? What nation could He fail to conquer? How great His kingdom would become! Beautiful streets, abundant food, and remarkable development. But the people requested a change in leadership, demonstrating that even the best arrangements can become stale. A Ugandan wise man once said, "Even the best dancer eventually gets off the stage." Everything in this mortal world has a beginning and an end. Beauty is like a flower that soon withers; it's foolish for a mortal to boast about their beauty, for who will marry them when it fades? When people rejected God as their king, He could have waged war on them, but He chose not to. As the creator, He cou
