The whole 'decolonisation' agenda is absurd nonsense - no stable political community has *ever* been formed, in Africa or elsewhere, other than by 'imperialistic'/'colonial' means. By suggesting that such things are specific to Europeans' dealings with others since c1492, the 'decolonisers' blatantly demonstrate their gross and contemptible ignorance.
