The Council for Afrika International, a UK-based think-tank has observed that evidence has shown that the catalogue of strategies, policies and interventions applied by African leaders since the declaration of political independence had failed.
The group said the intervention had rather inflicted havoc and genocide on the African peoples and blighted the prospects of future generations.
A statement issued by Dr Koku Adomdza, President of the Council to commemorate Africa Liberation Day, which fell on May 25, noted that ever since the declarations of political independence, no action has had any commensurate and transformational impact on the lives of the majority of Africans.
He said the economic crises facing Africa have resulted in an unsustainable state of survivalist emergency, requiring radical redress to prevent the African Continent from being plunged into mass societal unrests and quest for comprehensive justice.
Dr Adomdza said: “In recognising the undiminished significance, relevance and purpose of Africa Liberation Day in 2011,” the Council for Afrika International was drawing the attention of Africans and Global Leadership to the extreme conditions of poverty, injustice and other extreme conditions Africans found themselves.
“Council for Afrika International therefore makes an urgent call for a revolutionary approach to facilitate the African Liberation Vision, Mission and Project for the attainment of comprehensive liberation, freedoms and justice for Africans, Diaspora Africans and the African Continent…”
He said it was only by tackling the root causes of African economic stagnation with the same fierce and ferocious resolve and force that was displayed by the UN Security Council Resolutions to bombard Libyan military installations that would demonstrate the genuine commitment of the international community to stem the problems confronting Africa.
“Anything short of a concerted full frontal and multi-pronged attack on the saboteurs of the African Liberation Process, whoever they are, wherever they may be, has the high probability of un-alarmingly and inexorably tipping Africa over the cliff-edge of existing economic instability into unprecedented social and political instability.”
Dr Adomdza said the Council had launched its African Millennium Liberation and Prosperity Goals, taking into consideration the UN’S designation of 2011 as the Year for Africans and Persons of African Ancestry.
He said the year also signalled the commencement of the second decade of the 21st Century, as well as nearly 50 years of the proclamation of Africa Liberation Day in 1963 in Accra.
