Africans sought independence primarily to escape colonial rule, which imposed foreign governance, exploited resources, and suppressed cultural identities. They aimed to reclaim sovereignty, promote self-determination, and foster economic development. Additionally, the movement for independence was fueled by a desire for social justice and equality, as colonial powers often perpetuated racial discrimination and inequality. Ultimately, independence represented the opportunity for Africans to build their own nations and govern according to their values and needs.
