					<description><![CDATA[<p>TUTOR : PRESIDENT ISAAC KWABENA BOADU ; (PRESIDENT of AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL)</p>
<p>The post <a href="https://africanvoicesinternational.org/break-the-chains/">BREAK THE CHAINS</a> first appeared on <a href="https://africanvoicesinternational.org">AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL</a>.</p>]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 1rem; color: var(--ast-global-color-3); background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);">When we talk about Chains, what do we mean by Chains? Chains are various kinds of entanglements that people find themselves in, which makes them behave below measure, below confidence, below the required standards of and for living, and below the set standards for a prosperous living in the society. In Africa, a lot of people are currently in Chains as a result of the pains they have heard their forefathers and mothers pass during the Trans-Atlantic Slave Period. However, as President my message to us all is to break the Chains. We choose whether to be in the chains or not. It is a decision. </span><strong>BREAK THE CHAINS!</strong>   <p>People can find themselves in chains for wrongdoing such as stealing which may end them in jail. People also may find themselves in chains and may not be in a physical prison, but in prison within their souls, for the wrongdoings, their conscience pricks them of. People also find themselves in chains as a result of various kinds of adverse historical records they see or have heard of their ancestors or immediate relatives pass through.</p>Let us brood over this quote from General Lusweti which says, &#8220;Endeavour to endure the pain so as to endure the untapped potential.&#8221; There are gists to learn from every pain in life. We must not keep our minds shut to it. They open our eyes. They do not enslave us. They make us wiser. We have to pay a special attention to standing tall, as Freedom Giants in the middle of the pain, because in it lies our acceleration. During these times are our eyes opened whether in silence or in the open. We have to endure the pain and not to give in to it. We come out as brighter ones and energetic ones, when we endure but not to give in to it or to them.</p>



<p><em>BREAK THE CHAINS!</em> You are meant to win and not to be a Looser! You are a carrier of Success! You carry it all. You are a Gamechanger. Do not give in to the pains people want to surround you with. When you give in to the pains, you remain in misery and in chains. You are a Freedom Giant! Break the Chains! Pay Special attention to your strengths. That is where your Freedom lies! <em>Break the Chains!</em> Now when you look at this great Model, Khoudia Diop, from Senegal, she is a very beautiful dark skinned lady. I could even marry her if she is not single. But envious people can use her beauty to try and rather cause her in pain. People can use her dark skin colour to mock at her which should be rather be her strength.</p>



<p>Chains get us into depression!! Sometimes, certain people choose to stay in their chains. They choose to love the chains they are in. Such people choose to walk in repression as long as they will enjoy a form of &#8220;accommodative treasure&#8221; within themselves. Such forms of &#8220;accommodative treasures,&#8221; does not bring Freedom but enslavement. We did not come to live in enslavement. We came to fulfill our Destinies and in it lies true Freedom. There are a lot of People who have neglected their destinies because they want &#8220;immediate Freedom&#8221; which will end their lives in woes. A lot of people want to just have their peace in the short run, and as result will do whatever they can to ruin the lives of others, for theIr peace, which rather will lead them in enslavement</p>



<p>Freedom Giants, we must stand tall. We must break the chains. We must stand above the chains. There are various kinds of limitations in the society and we must end these chains. We must end these enslaving acts. We must be Relentless. We must be Relentless no matter how things go, as say to ourselves that we are Freedom Giants, all the time. We must never give in. We must never allow people to use their positions, age, ranks or whatsoever to win as, of our rights. We must roar like lions, fight the battle and God will fome through for us, for the Freedom, we want to see in our societies.</p>



<p>Freedom Giants, we are a Bloc of people who are supposed to come together and cause a shift in the world. A shift from the world filled with enslavement to a world made up Freedom. We are made for more. When we decide to stand in for anything, then anything will work for us. The moment we also imagine anything within our senses, anything just works. But the moment, we decide what we want to imagine with our senses, we begin to decide how productive we want to be.</p>



<p>As Freedom Giants, there are three Elements in life that we must go through. When we go through these elements, they should never be a limitation to our purpose. They moment we respond and submit to these elements, we find ourselves in chains. The first is <em>Repression</em> . The Repression Period is when people try all schemes to bring you down. This is the period when people just want to silence you, because they are wounded in their spirit by your presence. Their woes offends them when they see you. They try everything to bring you down, for being a Masterpiece. During these times, you have to be <em>Relentless</em> . You are only in these rooms for a period. This period is necessary because such injustices reveal to you, who you must walk with for the future. Never be dull, because no matter what, all these unjust people will show up themselves for you to differentiate between the jus and the unjust. The unjust need to show up so you can segmentate the just from the unjust. The Repression period reveals to you, who are your real siblings, mentors and comrades.</p>



<p>The second is the <em>Exile</em> Period. The Exile Perod is the Second Period of Elementary trajectory. This is where you are totally vanquished of your own inheritance. This is where you are fought against and your rights are taken from you. However at these periods in life, you have to be <em>Relentless</em> . You are getting better. Nelson Mandela was in Exile from 1964 when he was taken away from his country. Yaa Asantewaa same in 1901, Dr. Nkrumah in 1966 and all these Nationalists at a point in time, put in exile. Some died there but as President of <em>AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL</em>, I am here to tell you all that, none of you who remain Relentless and are genuine Freedom Giants shall die in the course of your duty. These old Africanists like Yaa Asantewaa and Dr. Nkrumah who died in Exile, paid the price for our <em>REJUVENATION</em> . Kenneth Kaunda in 1999, had his Citizenship status as Zambian taken away from him, but was given back to him in 2000. Dr. Nkrumah died in Exile in Guinea. Milton Obote of Uganda who gained Independence for Uganda, fled to Kenya and Zambia and died of a Kidney failure in South Africa. During his time in Exile, it is so surprising to note that he was never later forgiven by President Museveni with whom the Ugandan Bush War ensured with, for him to return to the country; Uganda, till his death when he was brought back to his country for burial. However, President Museveni never attended the state funeral.</p>



<p>The second is the <em>Exile</em> Period. The Exile Period is the Second Period of Elementary trajectory. This is where you are totally vanquished of your own inheritance. This is where you are fought against and your rights are taken from you. However at these periods in life, you have to be <em>Relentless</em> . You are getting better.

However, President Museveni never attended the state funeral.</p>



<p>We are in our YEAR OF REJUVENATION and in our YEAR OF REJUVENATION , we all need to understand there is a sense of Renaissance for us. We are being birthed into our real selves, and if we have not being able to overcome the Repression Period, The Exile Period and stand tall in our Actualisation Period, then there&#8217;s no way, we can become who we are, even if we have passed the <em>Repression and Exile Period</em> . We must stand tall as Freedom Giants in the Actualisation<em> Period</em> . If we want to live as Restored Freedom Giants, then we must be ready to forgive to live in the New Era. If we want to enjoy the Resurgence that the Renaissance brings to us as well as the Restoration, we have in this era, then we must be true Trailblazing Survivors. We must never give up. That is how we can say there is true Rejuvenation. The kind of treatment we give out to everybody determines whether we are in chains or not. If we expect Love, then we must give others to others. The kind of treatment we give out to orphans, widows, victims of oppression will determine the kind of reward we are to receive in our Year of Rejuvenation. We are the result of our actions. If we want a balance, then it is time for us to act.</p>



<p> <span style="font-size: 1rem; color: var(--ast-global-color-3); background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);">Freedom Giants, be Relentless. Break the Chains. Stand tall. Do not settle for less. Let us Revolutionize the Global Anatomy. Let us transform the Global Anatomy. Let us make it happen.</span>   <p>AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL, FREEDOM IN AFRICA</p> </p><p>The post <a href="https://africanvoicesinternational.org/break-the-chains/">BREAK THE CHAINS</a> first appeared on <a href="https://africanvoicesinternational.org">AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p>The African Anatomy has been mistreated. The African Anatomy has been dehumanised. The African Anatomy has been misdefined. Our identity has been stolen. We have been mishandled. AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL is here to tell all natives of the African Anatomy, not to substitute their identity for temporary wealth. Africa is a place of Freedom, and we sabotage our lives by placing our lives into bondage, when we trade our lives for temporary wealth and temporary survival. Now is the time for a restored Africa; a place of Permanent Honour, Wealth, Excellence, Peace and Love and Dignity. Let us walk in the African Renaissance. Let us not trade our Freedom for anything.</p>
<p><br />Africa is and has always been a habitation with enough natural resources, enough human expertise and wealth to take care of herself. Africa has always been a habitation of Freedom, Peace and Unity. Human Sufficiency has always been at its best in the African Anatomy We have dwelt in Peace and Love, in the African Anatomy disregarding our area of abode as a means of superiority and have rather used that as a strength to signify our bond as an Anatomy. Unfortunately, we created certain loopholes, in our structure as an Anatomy, and have allowed foreigners to misdefine, dehumanise and devalue us of our rights, identity and honour. This is the time for us to cause a Revival. This is the time for us to take back the stolen wealth. This is the time for us to take back the stolen identity. This is the time for us to take back our pride as people of Africa, with a cherished dignity.</p>
<p>Self-determination is the first factor, we as an Anatomy in Africa, can build upon to take back what belongs to us; our lost identity, purpose, wealth, unity and honour. Each African must courageously stand as a soldier passionately, ready to achieve victory for the continent. Each one must be able to get up from his or her sleep, and open his eyes to the lies said about us, the harms caused us, the threat posed at us and the daylight robbery meted on our land. We must wake up to see what has been dine to us. We must get up and build all the confidence, we need to take back, what has been stolen from us. We need to be intentionally focused on restoring our Freedom. We need to be committed to the purpose of restoring Freedom, back to Africa. Africa was never a mediocre place. Africans were never poor. Africans were never enslaved. We allowed it on ourselves. And this is the time for us take back what belongs to us. Africans were not sick. Now sicknesses and diseases have become a major pain to Africa. We allowed foreigners to take our land for their own businesses, and that is why, we are where, we are now.  The Westerners took over trade in Africa and used it for their profits, whist se we stayed around and watched them, steal our source of wealth. We overlooked the harm being caused to our future and allowed our resources to be exchanged for our own royals. This is why our economies and people are the way, they are. Nevertheless, we have to stand tall. This is the time for the needed revolutionization, the African Anatomy needs. <strong>AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL</strong> entreats all Africans to wake up from their sleep and slumber and reinforce themselves towards proactively working to build a better future for our land. We can only be better, when we wake up and that is what, we must do.</p>

<p>Freedom can only be achieved when we are ready to fight the Battle. We must fight every area of harm that has been meted on us. We must fight back and take what belongs to us. We must wake up to the fall and claim our dignity, heritage, pride and stolen resources. We must not settle for less because we are not a mediocre oriented people, and until we fight back, we will still be where we are. Freedom comes out of Survival and out of Survival comes people who have fought for what they deserve and are victorious, and ready to stand for victory at all times. We must claim what belongs to us. Day in, day out, the challenges, that we face are new and enormous and we must strategically fight to retain our position as dignified and free beings and be promoted to the nee level, we deserve. We have depleted to zero and this is not something, we must make history of. Europeans were middlemen in our own land, where they extracted our goods and resources at their own prices and very painfully, also took our people as workers to build their empires and paid us at regrettable prices. We were used to build their factories and industries. They can never boast or their own self relied efforts in getting to where they are. We were used. Our strong men and women were used as slaves for work. They humiliated us and made mockery of us. Now is the time for us to build back. This is the time for us to build Africa, with our own hands, skills and knowledge to show the Global Anatomy, what we are made of. We are not a people of defeat, shame, mediocrity, lack and foolishness. We are a people of Excellence, Strength, Peace and Love, Joy, Bravery and Innovativeness. The GLOBAL FREEDOM BOARD of AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL entreats all Africans in the diaspora to come back and build on their soils or even to invest in Africa from wherever they are, for the future, the African Anatomy needs as a people.</p>
<p>Patriotism is the last thing, AFRICAN VOICES INTERNATIONAL will press on. We must be Patriotic natives of our own land. We must cherish the land, our forefathers and mothers, great grandfathers and mothers were birthed from, and where we ourselves, were birthed from. We must be Nationalistic natives. We must cherish Africa with all our hearts. This must be at the center of our lives. We must start to consume African goods, wear African clothes, prefer African factories’ goods and patronise African Innovators. We must patronise our own. We must stand for our own. We must celebrate our own and be jubilant of what we have. That is how the African Anatomy can develop into a First Class World. We must learn to praise those who are bringing goods from Africa to the Global Level, and do our best to also advertise them, and play our role in also making them world renowned products. Let us celebrate Africa, into becoming what and where, she must be. This is how Africa can reclaim what belongs to her.</p>
<p><br />The African Anatomy is the next center for Global Development. The African Anatomy is the next destination for Global Trade and Investment. The African Anatomy is the next hub, where people will learn Freedom from. We can do it. Let us possess what belongs to us. Let us change Africa into what she must be; a place of Freedom. Let us play our roles well, in taking Africa to the promised land for the realisation of Freedom, not only in Africa, but the Global Anatomy. Let us transform the African Anatomy. Let us revolutionize the African Anatomy. Let us be the pacesetters of change and Freedom, the Global Anatomy, needs! We can do it. Let us make it happen.</p>
