Migration was a human phenomenon emanating from Creation when Adam and Eve were forcefully expelled from heaven onto planet Earth due to their disobedience through the influence of evil against The Command of The Almighty Azzawajal. Prior to their expulsion from heaven, Adam; the culpritadmitted guilt and pleaded for clemency through this verse from the Quran on quote: Rabana JalamnaAang phusana Waaelamuu TakepherelanaWatarehamna Lalananakunana Minalkaserena.God,The Anointing and Grace, granted them pardon and finally banished them from heaven. Each had been thrown into a separate destination of the universe and they began migrating in search of one another until they met in Egypt. The first human settlement on the face of the earth was Africa, despite being commodified, as well as being the only continent that received all civilizations and still welcoming even the Chinese, Indians, Turkish, Korians, irrespective of reparation about the perils of her tragic past. Nature further punctuates her with the largest and beautiful rivers, lakes, cliffs, and oceans. All these have demonstrated The Unique and Diversity of Great Almighty God’s Eternal Diversity, notwithstanding Mother Africa’s Slender Arm of openness. Human beings migrate based on circumstances either natural calamities or man-made phenomenal consequences like war, intolerance, sustenance for survival, or other related immoral conscience of disguise. Mankind, however, started moving from one destination to another immediately when Geologists discovered that the earth is spherical in shape not flat as initially conceived. During the Dark Age, the early man accidentally invented fire and civilization eventually penetrated humankind, resulting in agriculture being championed through the usage of the shaduf alongthe River Nile basin. Africa then became known as the cradle of human civilization. These historical artifacts of substance are designed in archives,which are hardly mentioned nor put into light.Beyonddoubt of a historical glimpse on memory lane, the Arabs were the first immigrants, who enslaved Africa through incarceration followed by the oppressive West. In December 1884 to February 1885, colonial economic migrants sat in Berlin and puzzled Africa into spheres of influence: The British had their share called Anglophone, French Africa called Francophone, Lusophone Africa were The Portuguese, as well Arabophone, including Belgium, Spain, Italy and Duetschland Germany. Nearly four centuries we have been commodified in servitude through slavery, and when this inhuman trade lost its shine and shin; as agitation for abolition was rife by Marcus Garvey, William Dubois, Aggrey, and Booker T Washington. Colonialism came with the worst ever pernicious and colour variation in-between man against man was apartheid regime, instituted by Henrick Ferfurt in Nineteen Forty Eight South Africa. Decolonisation suddenly grew massively and African States started independent movements, and Ghana took the lead in Nineteen Fifty Seven followed by individual African States. Although attainment of Independence became a reality: sadly and interestingly enough, neocolonialism an enterprise of Dead Aid through IMF, World Bank, USAID etc. Disheartenly, our cherished ancestral glories of customary values of norms binding Societies into Moral Cohesion have fallen apart, against hostile Western imperialist tendencies; like equation of biology against the order of nature, LGBTQIA+, teenage pregnancy, alcohol haram,anti FGM, attitudinal decay. Europeans unfortunately were eating raw meat and living in caves now basements, Africans discovered fire and dwelling in Great Kingdoms with Civilisation booming like, the great walls of Monomotapa, Benin, Ashante Empire, Songhai, Zulus, Temene and Mendes, MandingEmpires. Pythagoras, Socrates, Christ, and even Prophet Muhammad SAW visited Africa; plus other Great Scholars around The Globe. You pay Homage to where Knowledge resides. The tragedy of Africa since Independent was attained is lack of blood by incompetent leadership, as few if not all have fallen as puppets to diabolical Europe: and this has had adverse detrimental impact on her destiny. Throughout in the history of humanity, inasmuch as vices of evil aggravating Annoyance towards The Almighty Azzawajal, the underlining implications of repercussion are unavoidable natural calamities like volcanoes, earthquakes, lightening and thunder, incurable diseases, notwithstanding countless number of soldiers of Allah, Janlang Waahlahawaiting supernatural Command: as current realities of havoc mankind is encountering indisproportionately. Layansunalaha MayumarunahWayaphu Aalunah Mayumarunah… Oh Great Almighty God Azzawajal, Save the human race through The Attributes of Thy Divine and Graceful Ninety Nine Names of Sanctity, as already mankind have been submerged in a limbo heading on a negative and dangerous Parth. Judgement Day, Samabera Lung Baiebaloh encroaches, and Death The Guardian Angel is on the move alarmingly. In cold war Global Order after European depression ended in Nineteen Forty Five, which they misled humankind by calling world war two, since their conflicts are resolved through neighbourly disputes, unlike subservient Africa only fatal confrontation. On the immediate aftermath when world war two ended, The Doctrine of Mankind was ratified under Geneva Convention of The United Nations. Foreign Policy under Geneva Convention among Nations of The UN was bilateral relations of individual member States to facilitate and actualise the welfare of their citizens. Putting our crippling Government into context which has been confronted with invasive corruption scandals; incapable of injecting hygiene within the civil service to implement Financial Discipline whereby curbing this menace through Checks and Balance is in shrinkage. Law Makers of our voted political giraffes on Good Practice Document whether defused, or perhaps possible scrutiny needed to be outlined, understandably the reality is adding acid to our unhealing wound of abject poverty, inflation, high cost of living, lack of basic amenities, like erratic power cuts, acute water scarcity, inundating environmental burden, inefficient service delivery surrounding both central and institutional operating organs of The State. For the interest of both agrarian Europe and subservient Africa of Gambia is, training these immigrants into gainful employment through entrepreneurial skills, than stock piling them into a country where unemployment and suffering of the masses is on the rise indisputably. Inorder for Africa to realise her potential and liberate herself from the ghost of pessimistic view of low esteem as children of lesser god, and becomes actors on her destiny among Committe of Nations: we must demonstrate personal conquest, true essence of Leadership with realism and optimism towards Africa. As the common Mandinka proverb says: Ning Jurumeh JanohManbang, Samenlenwoluu Kanah Jeleh Nyolah. Inorder words, when clearing and burning of farmland is not unleash; snakes must not laugh at each other. Most importantly in conclusion: Africa Climate Summit in Nairobi Kenya has declared more Global Sacrifice to energise International Efforts, so as to mitigate Carbon Emission and restoring endangered Eco-system with green habitual environment mounted since early Seventies by Climatologists. Dingbah Nyingmah!!!
