Africans are blessed with a lot of minerals that if this resources are gainfully used for benefit of their citizens, this God given resources would add colours to Africans. Countries in Africans like Nigeria, Serial Leone, Ghana, kenya, south Africa and lots more you will a lot of natural resources either misused or abandon by government and even if they see need to use them, is either abused or mismanaged. Petrol in Nigeria till today is been refined outside country and still import back to Nigeria on a high price, lots of minerals like coals, salt, kerosene, gas, petroleum and so on but no appropriate handling of this resources, so even the citizens can not benefit from it. If Africa can make use of their resources well, they will be more independent, free from indebtedness and indirect colonial system of other countries.

There are many countries just like Africa in the world that had not established there mineral resources they have because of bad government, mismanagement, conflicts, poor education and many things that is why it still look like some countries in Africa are not fit to stand as an independent country because of lack of knowledge and necessary tools to establish a market for the raw materials they got from the nature. There are many countries suffering I'm Africa because of bad government which had mad the entire country looks very poor.

Africa is not getting enough supports from their colonies who capitalize on the natural resources in Africa ever since they colonized Africa and still have influence on the companies that work with the raw materials in Africa. Nigeria is an example of an oil producing country under the influence of Britain on their oils. Shell is owned by them and they still make loads of money through the oil company, that's why it seems like no refinery operates in the country. The price of those minerals is very expensive for citizen of Nigeria, which is not proper, they should be enjoying cheaper prices on petrol. The Government takes the blame, but they see what the citizens can't understand, instead of losing out they take their own personal share of the resources and move on while it lasts. Their colonies still have an eye on them.
