African spend USD 48 billion annually on wars

Africa is the most undeveloped continent where live expectancy is 43 years.

Human existence is hard because of poverty, corruption, war and diseases. The causes of all these vices are both internal and external factors e.g. slave trade, colonial history and disadvantageous geographical location and isolation from the world trade.

Most African countries were forced to become one country. Before the coming of colonial masters in the African continent, various African tribes were living separately. Most often they have various cultural and religious differences.

These ethnic differences has produced lack of trust, hatred,

envy, suspicion, political domination and violence.

Surprisingly some African nations that have same religious and cultural values also fight unending wars among themselves.

Because of this suspicion and lack of trust various ethnic groups have wrongly adopted violence to address their grievances, from Niger Republic, Chad, Congo, Liberia, Ethiopia, Somalia and Mozambique, etc.

Lack of trust has brought unending wars, poverty, influx of refugees,

Even untimely death

But surprisingly Africa as a content is very rich but its people are poor.

This indicates that poverty in the continent is not natural but manmade.

All African countries have, abundant natural resources for example crude oil, diamond precious stones etc. Even the soil is highly fertile. But war has almost destroyed the blessed continent.

After colonial era Africans have been waging war on its own people. Destroying all their values and civilisation. Because of greed and intolerance.

How long will this war, disease and poverty last? Third world countries like china and India has almost taken over the world economy and Africans are still fighting its own people. Many Africa people flee their homes, separate from all what they love first because of brutes in the continents. Africans don’t need war and hatred among themselves.

They need development not guns, they need science and technology and deserve good life like people in other continents.

A new study shows that conflicts in Africa cost the continent over 300 billion USA dollar between 1990 and 2005.

This huge amount of money would have provided educational infrastructure and enhance public health systems in various African countries.

According to a report by Oxfam international and International Action Network on Small Arms (IANSA) and safer world.

The report was to show on large scale, the effect of conflict on Africa gross domestic products.

How long will Africans fight it self and inflict violence pain and death on its own people?

When will Africans shun individual enrichment and embrace collective development for the benefits of its children?

Time is running out
