arising from
the exercise of
a trip from Nigeria to Uganda
and
an earlier trip from Nigeria to Ghana
and an inadvertent
– – and perhaps in real terms inevitably unavoidable – –
comparison
comparism
of
the fluidity and speed of acquiring a key document
required
to gain entry into those defined territories
legally,
legitimately
and
properly
via
their designated ports of entry
.. in this instance their International Airports
it is a guess that
there would be much value
in
■ the immediate short term,
■ the near future,
■ the emergent future .. specifically the medium term,
■ the distant future i.e the ( conceivable ) long term
if
the ANGLO-PHONE COUNTRIES OF NEGROLAND AFRICA
were to
put in place a
RECIPROCAL
policy, practice and proceedure
of
granting
VISA ON ARRIVAL
to
citizens and residents of
ANGLO-PHONE NEGROLAND AFRICA COUNTRIES
travelling from their ( i.e other countries)
to
their own countries.
ButterScotch UG nnkeh nm ( nkem ),
i guess it is probably
better
if we keep the stuff simple
and
try and enumerate/list out the points one by one
preferably in a patterning that is
sequential and organised
.. especially if we find ourselves functioning by
incremental reasoning
as we go along.
so,
ButterScotch fine fine baby,
let’s roll
like this :
(1) the Africa Continent
is
historically and currently blessed
by nature and by GOD
with an abundance of
mineral resources,
agricultural resources
and
human resources.
(2) a look at
a map of Africa
will show that
the countries in Africa
can broadly be divided into
2 types
based on
the humanoid types that are historically native to Africa,
viz :
(a) the Negroland Countries
which are also sometimes called
.. the Sub-Saharan Africa Countries
.. the Black Africa Countries
.. the Negro Africa Countries
(b) the Arab Africa Countries
which are also sometimes called
.. the Ante-Saharan Africa Countries
(3) the Negroland Africa Countries
i.e
the Sub-Saharan Africa Countries
form
the greater portion / the greater number
of
the Countries in Africa.
(4) for the purposes of this post
i will not concern myself with
the Arab Africa Countries
e.g
Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia
(5) for the purposes of this post
i will concern myself with
the Negro Africa Countries
e.g
Nigeria, Uganda, Congo, Botswana
(6) the Negroland Africa Countries
can be
grouped/classified/categorised
into :
(i) the Countries in West Africa
i.e
the Countries in Western Africa
i.e
the West Africa countries
i.e
the Western Africa countries
(ii) the Countries in East Africa
i.e
the Countries in Eastern Africa
i.e
the East Africa countries
i.e the Eastern Africa countries
(iii) the Countries in Central Africa
i.e
the Central Africa countries
(iv) the Countries in Southern Africa
i.e
the Southern Africa countries
(7) one prevailing commonality across Negroland Africa
and
it’s various regions
[ West Africa, East Africa, Central Africa, Southern Africa ]
is
that
despite
the multiplicity of native Negro languages
and
the wide spread geographical use of some these native Negro languages,
the language of administration,
the language of governance,
the language of commerce
is
invariably
a Western Europe language
i.e
a West Europe language
e.g
■ French .. originally from France, Western Europe,
■ English .. originally from England, Western Europe,
■ Portuguese .. originally from Portugal, Western Europe,
■ Spanish .. originally from Spain, Western Europe,
(8) this reality is
a fall out of
the historical reality
that
.. on international record ..
( – – and with all due respect to everyone’s sensitivities – – )
for
several hundreds of years
in
World History,
the West Europe folks
i.e
■ the Holland folks – the Dutch folks – the Netherlands folks,
■ the Spain folks – the Spaniards – the Spanish folks,
■ the Portugal folks – the Portuguese folks,
■ the Belgium folks – the Belgians,

and
during these
very long periods of several hundreds of years
imposed their own languages
i.e
French,
Portuguese,
Spanish,
English,
etc
on
the Negro peoples of the territories that they governed
(9) as a direct result of this historical reality
i.e
as a result of this imposition of their own languages
( i.e French, Portuguese, Spanish, English, etc )
on
the Negro peoples of the territories that they controlled,
countries like
Nigeria, Ghana and Gambia
in
West Africa
speak and use English as the language of administration
because
they were dominated, colonised and ruled by
the English language speaking people of
England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales
i.e Britain
i.e
the United Kingdom (U.K) West Europe
i.e
Western Europe
while
in THE SAME West Africa
countries like
Senegal, Benin Republic,
Cameroon, Niger Republic,
Cote D’ivoire ( Ivory Coast )
speak and use French as the language of administration
because they were dominated, colonised and ruled by
the French language speaking people of
France, West Europe
i.e Western Europe
(10) this sort of scenario
exists
in
every geographical region of Negroland Africa
e.g
▲ in Southern Africa,
Angola and Mozambique speak and use the Portuguese language
as the language of administration
while
Zimbabwe and Botswana
speak and use the English language
as the language of administration
▲ Equatorial Guinea
in Central Africa
uses Spanish as official language
( and also recognises French and Portuguese as official languages )
while
Chad uses French only as official language.
▲ Uganda
in East Africa
is English language speaking
while
the Comoros Islands and Madagascar are French speaking.
▲ it is in fact a fairly recent happenstance of World History that Rwanda in East Africa
changed its official language from French to English.
(11) a net fall out of this reality
is that
in each of the regions of Negroland Africa, viz :
West Africa,
East Africa,
Central Africa,
Southern Africa
there is a seeming likelihood of
higher socio-economic interactions among
the countries that use and speak the same West Europe language
as the language of administration
e.g
a parent in Nigeria
who feels that
the recurrent? strikes?/industrial actions? by the Academic Staff Union of Universities ( ASUU )
may affect his/her child by
for example
causing that child to stay a longer period obtaining the degree due to
closure of the Universities during the industrial strikes in agitation for
better working conditions and better remuneration
by the lecturers
and
who due to the very low exchange rate of
the Nigeria Naira to the US Dollar, the British Pound, the Europe Euro
finds it extremely expensive and thus virtually unaffordable to
send that child to USA or Europe to complete his/her University/tertiary education
may find himself/herself considering
options in West Africa
and
may go for
a University in Ghana for example
as against
a University in Cote D’ivoire/Ivory Coast
because
the language of instruction/teaching at the University in Ghana is English
and
his/her child being an English language speaking student from Nigeria
will adapt more easily to
the English language Ghana and Ghana University environment
than to
a French language speaking University in Ivory Coast/Cote D’ivoire
especially if
that Nigeria student does not understand or speak French as a language.
(12) in this regards,
many kudos
must be given to
the regional economic organisations in Negroland Africa
e.g
▲ ECOWAS
( ECOWAS = Economic Community of West African States )
▲ EAC
( EAC = East African Community )
▲ ECCAS
( ECCAS = Economic Community of Central African States )
▲ SADC
( SADC = Southern Africa Development Community )
which have instituted
a RECIPROCAL VISA ON ARRIVAL policy
within their own distinct economic regions
as this policy
undoubtedly/indutiably
enhances socio-economic interactions
within their own regions
irrespective of the happenstance that
on occasions
the socio-economic interactions may be between
citizens and residents of countries with differing languages of administration
it is infact a
very visionary policy
that
can boost
business, investment and socio-economic interactions
between
citizens and residents of countries in the
same Negroland Africa economic region / economic sub-region
who have
differing languages of administration
e.g
a motor-car battery manufacturer in Nigeria
who feels that
from May 2023 till date November 2024
the exchange rate of
the Nigeria Naira
has fallen terribly low comparative to the US Dollar
and
has been in continous downward free-fall comparative to the US Dollar
and that this threatens the very survival of his/her business
as
he/she imports all the machinery, spare parts, tools and raw materials
from abroad
e.g
USA or Europe
and must therefore pay for these stuff in US Dollars
in line with the usual international trading convention
and who
learns that the FRANCOPHONE CFA
is now comparatively stronger than the Nigeria NAIRA
and
also learns that
from May 2023 till date November 2024
the exchange rate of
the FRANCOPHONE CFA has been somewhat fairly STABLE
comparative to the US Dollar
may instead of
COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN MANUFACTURING in Nigeria
or
COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN THE FACTORY, PLANT
or
COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN THE ENTIRE BUSINESS
as some companies, manufacturers and producers
are rumoured to have
been doing
from 1989?
when the continous?, continuing? devaluation of the NAIRA began
may opt
to
FIGHT TO TRIUMPH IN BUSINESS
by
SETTING UP A CAR BATTERY MANUFACTURING PLANT
in
FRANCOPHONE WEST AFRICA COTE D’IVOIRE / IVORY COAST
which
is rumoured to have
■ FAIRLY STABLE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
( which is a plus for manufacturers )
■ A CAPABLE DOMESTIC WORK FORCE
■ FAIR SECURITY
and a
■ FAIRLY STABLE CURRENCY
(13) it is a hope that
this sort of
visionary policy
should be
extended to
and
applied in
all regions of Negroland Africa, viz :
ECOWAS and EAC and ECCAS and SADC
i.e
between and among the countries in
West Africa and East Africa and Central Africa and Southern Africa
(14) it is also a hope that
while
effort should be made to
ensure that
the average citizen of Negroland Africa can
function
in at least? 2? languages of administration
different from
the language of administration in
his/her own native country/country of residence
that
the English language speaking countries of Negroland Africa
i.e
the Anglophone countries of Negroland Africa
REDUCE THE DIFFICULTY OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC INTERACTIONS
among the peoples of their countries
by
putting in place
a positive mutually beneficial
RECIPROCAL VISA ON ARRIVAL
policy, practice and proceedure.
