Out of the five African teams who are playing in Russia’s World Cup 2018, only Senegal and Nigeria have recorded wins as things become more thick for the other three.
The defeat of Tunisia, Morocco, and Egypt has reminded modern Africans how the western world continues to colonize the black continent even before the full glare of human rights centers.
During the colonial periods in the 18th century, strong and able-bodied were forcefully shipped out of Africa or by tipping off African chiefs with liquors or old used guns and bicycles. But when the rules changed, the hunter had to learn how to shoot without missing as the bird stopped patching.
As we speak, the forest is still the same, with the same hunters who changed their methods. Africa has suffered and continued to suffer in successive world cups, due to the white man supremacy.
Many African top players have been lured to play for western nations after being awarded lucrative money, in their naivety and younger age, they have agreed.
A good example is Joel Matip, who plays at Liverpool in England shockingly retired from his national team Cameroon so as he could play and focus his career on the English side club. His actions did not only spark negative reactions but costed his country who ended up losing a world cup spot.
Here are some of the black players who ditched their African Nations to play for white nations.
Dele Alli is a Nigerian-born English who plays for England at World cup.
Danny Welbeck is another example as he plays for England but he is actually a Ghanaian born.
Others such as Kylian Mpabbe, Samuel Umtiti, and Ousmane Dembele are all from Western African Countries.
