Abstract:
This paper is motivated by the level ofself deception with the attempts at genuine national liberation are replete on the African continent, even among the intellectuals.The situation is that which we want to save ourselves when we do not know ourselves.Consequently therefore, this paper seeks to demonstrate that the Afro-constructivist strategy vould be a lead way in the right direction as African struggles for liberation.Following this strategy, the paper will also establish specifically that; a) the African ideological framework is not comprehensive enough for the kind of liberation she so desire; b) the African educational system/intellectual seem to keep perpetuating and recycling this comprehensiveness; c) the true project of liberation consist in keying into the project of pluri-versality as a universal project.In sum, our liberation consists in us freeing ourselves from the clutches of self-deception.
