Verdict: carrot
In The Shameful State, Sony Labou Tansi charts how farcical and chimerical twists related to power play upon the disfigured face of postcolonial Africa. Africa’s fate was not decreed solely by the numerous despots who have stymied her potential. Rather it was drawn by the colonial forces that treated her as a mere object to be toyed with, and exploited at will. We are now left to cope with the myriad internal distortions and dysfunction created in the wake of a mostly bitter colonial legacy.
