The Progress of Science in Africa

Abstract

Liberation is a personal experience through which an individual passes when she decides to be a responsible person answerable to herself and to others with whom she shares the facts and the life of the society in which she lives. It is an experience of knowing and accepting oneself, and desiring freedom for self-determination, self-fulfilment and personal happiness. This desire is determined by our perception of what life can provide within our perceived horizons and within the bounds of our ability to control our own emotions and mind. Once we have made our choice, the rest is fate and destiny.
