SANKOFAISM: REINVENTING AFRICA - FROM ITS INDIGENOUS PHILOSOPHIES

Colonialism and its concomitant introduction of Western ideas, values and socio-economic and political institutions down played indigenous African thought, values and practices. With the dawn of the new millennium the quest to look for African solutions to socio-economic, educational and political problems is gaining currency on the continent. To achieve stability, peace, progress, educational, socio-economic and political development, Africans must have to revisit their indigenous thoughts, knowledge systems and practices and integrate them into their adopted Western ways of life.
