The Colonial Clock: Who Designed Africa's Retirement Models? We talk about colonialism’s obvious legacies in Africa: IMF structural adjustment programmes, debt traps, "aid" tied to economically-crippling policy changes, externally-fueled conflicts and t*rror... But what about those colonial legacies which we have normalized so much, we barely even notice or question them? What if we told you that even the age at which you are allowed to retire as an African is just another Western colonial weapon fashioned against you? @sannario_ reports for The Spearhead.
