Sho Madjozi took to social media recently to reflect on her travels across the African continent. The John Cena hitmaker blamed colonisation for the disconnections between some neighbouring African countries.

"The disconnect between African countries who had different colonisers is illustrated best by the lack of flights between us. Mozambique and Tanzania are neighbouring countries but there are no direct flights between them," Sho tweeted on Saturday, January 23.

The musician also complained that to fly from Dakar to Abuja one has to first fly to Belgium or France then fly back.

"And you can’t even blame the airlines. African countries interact very little with countries that had a different colonizer to our own and I think the colonial language we use is a big part of that. It keeps our ties with the former masters tighter than our ties with each other."

In a lengthy Twitter thread, Sho added that there is a disconnect between countries in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region because some are French or Portuguese or English speaking "when our local languages are so so similar to one another".

"It doesn’t make sense."
