We borrowed mzungu cultural artifacts but failed to borrow his intellectual culture. That is why you see a Kenya having a Cartier watch but has no concept of punctuality.
That is why you see a Kenyan Judge or Lawyer wearing a horse 'hair' wig but does not have an iota of why it was first used. The Judges and Lawyers in the country are a scum of the earth. Ope Willy will change that perception.
We failed to adapt mzungu's Science and Technology for production but instead borrowed his consumption culture. Kenyans consume Western products in abundance but have never thought about acquiring the knowledge and technology behind the production of the same goods and services.
Asian tigers discovered the folly of taking in foreign culture. They kept their culture but borrowed Western Capitalist's model of production but adapted a Socialist model of distribution.
Africans borrowed the negative aspects of Capitalism like corruption, nepotism etc but still lean on Marxist way of production instead of consumption.
Africa still believes in spirit world and expect the ancestors to have a practical role in diseases, loliondo, and witchcraft even when science has made interaction with our environment more friendly.
Go overdrive in purchasing the goods when there's blood on the streets, expecially if the blood is your own
