5^ AFRICA MUST UNITE
Azikiwe’s West African Pilot prepared the ground for the in
dependence movement in Nigeria.
These, and other newspapers, have undoubtedly helped in
the spread of African nationalism. They have emphasized the
need for ‘freedom first5 and then development. If we are to
banish colonialism utterly from our continent, every African
must be made aware of his part in the struggle. Freedom
involves the untiring efforts of every one engaged in the struggle
for it. The vast African majority must be accepted as the basis of
government in Africa.
