Abuja (Core reporter) Nigerian professors, Edmund Agbo and theorfilus Ndubuaku both invited the African leaders, the Nigeria included, to bring the continent back to the roots and rediscover our lost identity, stating that the continent is facing a serious identity crisis in every aspect of its existence.

They called on Saturday 31 May 2025 during the first day of the commemoration of the African week in Abuja.

Africa Week is a program proclaimed by the United Nations organizations for education, scientific and cultural (UNESCO). It is an extension of the celebration of the African day that is marked on May 25 of each year in commemoration of the foundation of the African unit in Addis Ababa founded in 1963.

Prof. Agbo explained that the representatives of Africans in UNESCO discovered that one day it was not enough to celebrate a great continent like Africa, the oldest continent in the world with the younger population, therefore the genesis of the activities of the week for the forum.

The theme of this year’s celebration according to UNESCO is: “The return of the African educational, social and political cultural heritage etc. while the theme of AU is justice for Africa and the people of Africa through repair. And the theme of Nigeria is Africa-European Africa-Asia.

According to him, “Africa Week is a forum of dialogue, collaboration, cooperation and evaluation of past Africa and present in order to project greater success in the future of Africa. People come from various social classes to participate in the celebration because it is a good forum for dialogue for possible business opportunities, as well as possible intra-personal relationships.

The founder. A bioethastic pioneering, visionary educator and founder of the International Bio-Research Institute, Enugu Nigeria, said that the western world should start repair by treating Africans as human beings, observing that inhumanization is put on Africans in various forms; injustice, exploitation, oppression and suppression.

However, Prof. Agbo has revealed that the African continent continent is the result of its leader syndrome, adding that leaders make everything possible to stay in power, including the mortgage of the future.

He stressed that most African leaders are not qualified to be where they are today, but because the western man knows that the greatest war tool is to choose the weakest enemies because if you have chosen the strongest enemies you have lost the war and if you have chosen the weakest you won the war even before his departures.

“The West assures that people who are not qualified to guide their countries in Africa are those who guide in order to have the power to dictate them what they should do. The only way out is that Africans begin to fight and defend their franchise.

“We ask all Africans to let ourselves return to our roots, rediscovery of our identity. We are a people with a serious identity crisis, a linguistic crisis, a cultural crisis and even the crisis in the way we understand things thus becoming a basket of international waste in which all ideologies and countermeaspers are deposited.

In the same way, the executive secretary of the Association of the Union of Nigeria Research Institutes (Asuri) Prof. Theophilus Ndubuaku said that it is unlikely that the African continent began to ask for repair from the West, saying that the West has already owned their crime against Africans during the slavery era.

Prof. Ndubuaku said that the Africa Week Forum is claiming the renewed hope for the black man as such are ready to continue to raise awareness of African governments to get up for the occasion.

He observed that when Moshood Abiola was alive, he supported the negotiation of compensation on the African continent and both agreed to compensate with 77 trillions of dollars before his death, since then the African government has been less worried about taking him from where ABI stops.

He said: “The European nations then agreed to have done wrong things for Africans and were ready to compensate for us, but because the man inhale who was supporting the cause died, no other African leader is ready to take control of the challenge. Consequently, he is worsening the day. So our duty is now starting from where Abiola stops to raise awareness of our government on the need to ask for our rights.

Upon release of the debt under the President OluSEGUN OBASANJO, prof. Ndubuaku said: “Remember when Obasanjo was in power, he used those atrocities of the West on Africa, in particular Nigeria to negotiate for the release of the debt.

He warned that if the Africans have not risen now, the new turning point of slavery which is the economic slavery has reached us. A situation that a country will borrow what the next generations cannot pay, is worse than slavery.

Basic journalists report that the duo has warned that neo-colonialism will continue in Africa unless young people and government leaders do not face the new challenge that the continent is facing.

Basic journalists include that African week will continue in the United States at the end of August, Whike Italia, Bulgaria in September and Hungary in October.
