Africa’s education system was never designed to empower Africans!
In this thought-provoking episode of The African Narratives Podcast, we unpack the uncomfortable truth about formal Western education in Africa—and why many now call it “the long road to unemployment.”
From colonial classrooms to modern lecture halls, this episode explores:
• Why African education systems still mirror colonial priorities
• The rise of “paper graduates” with degrees but no practical skills
• Why artisans, farmers, and mechanics are undervalued despite holding society together
• How vocational skills are wrongly seen as inferior to white-collar jobs
• The urgent need to Africanise education for real development
