Book excerpt: The book How Berlin Conference Clung on Africa: What Africans Must Do aims to expose the root causes of Africa’s struggles, including colonialism, greed, and artificial national divisions. It examines the lasting impact of the Berlin Conference of 1884-85, where European powers divided Africa, leading to dependence and underdevelopment. The book also criticises the role of African leaders in perpetuating these divisions and hindering progress. It argues that the artificial borders created at the Berlin Conference have been detrimental to Africa, and calls for unity and a rejection of the colonial legacy to achieve true independence and prosperity.
