INTRODUCTION Neo colonialism refers to the indirect control of the African nations by their former colonial master into different aspects include politically, Economically, Socially and Culturally (Emanuel mgina, 2014). According to Kwame Nkruma (1965) on his book called, Neo Colonialism is a last stage of imperialism. He called this as a post modern imperialism or Neo imperialism, defined as the practice of using Capitalism, Globalization and Cultural imperialism to influence a developing country in lieu of direct military control (imperialism) or indirect political control (hegemony). Neo colonialism started immediately after the decolonization of African and Asian nations (Immediately after the WWII). The colonial administrator’s interests would not jeopardized by the transfer of power. One of the methods to prepare the ground for creation of puppet leaders by involving leaders or national movement into colonial Governments. This ensured the engaging leaders were groomed to uphold the existing exploitation relation. Now let's look on how Neo colonialism is operating in their continuation of exploit the third world countries, those methods divided into Economical, Political, Social and Cultural methods, by starting with economical methods; Mass investment imperialist. Imperialist nations invest much in third world countries, they have many companies which they exploit market area and cheap labour, and also imperialist nations have been able to get inexpensive natural resources from poorer countries in Asia, Africa and Latin American. For example Minerals, Oil and Agricultural products. Loans and Grants. This is done through the use of organs such as World Bank, IMF and IFC to give the developing countries loan and grant which paid with very high interest rate and unrealistic conditions which is hard for African countries to pay back, that result into debt burden hence underdevelopment. Unequal exchange also used by neo Imperialist to exploit developing countries. The developed nations produce cheaper higher quality goods in large quantity for a short period of time to be exchanging with African raw materials which some of them are very expensive and valued. Intems of political methods Neo colonialist use to establish good relationship with ruling class so as to influence their interests though them, for instance treaty to conduct various activities of economic such as Mines, Gas that are benefit to them. Establishment of military base so as to safeguards their interests. For instance USA has got 234 military bases in 29 countries of Africa and Asia. Coup detat method is conducted especially to those leaders whose are strong to protect their national economy had been overthrow or assassinated, for example Patrick Lumumba of Zaire (1960),Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana and Muamal Gadafi of Libya(2011). In social aspects, mass media such as BBC, CNN, DW and VOA are used to propagate their culture and to ignore African culture, also though these used to inspire various issues for their interests and to exploit the third world countries. Apart from the methods used by imperialist countries to underdeveloped third world countries, the following are the feature or indicators of Neocolonialism; Economic dependence. This is major characteristics of Neocolonialism whereby a country with this modern imperialism cannot decide on its own as fallacies as economic is concern, rather they have to depend from capitalist nations for development in those nations. For example Tanzania depends on China and American economy. Puppet regime, which work daily for supervise the operation of Neocolonialism in their nations for the interest of capitalist in Europe and America(USA), and also imperialist countries used to support the puppet leaders who serves their interests, those leaders cause their countries to remain in poor conditions for individual benefits. For example Mobutu seseseko of DRC in 1960's. The third world countries relied on outside military intervention especially from the former mother countries when it could not handle its own internal matter, also relied from Mather country's military for training and army. The emergency of Neocolonialism not coming from nowhere, but there are root factors which led to the existence of this modern imperialism, those are the following; Impacts of cold war. The cold war that emerged in the post war period and the subsequent emergency of two rival blocs in international relations, made things worst for the new state. Several new states compelled to join either two blocs for securing vitally needed economic assistance and military equipment. For example, membership of a bloc acted as a source of outside control over their policies. The needs of developed nations. The continued needs for raw materials and markets for selling their goods compelled the former imperial to somehow maintain their economic domination of new Sovereign state, this impelled imperialist to maintain their interests by new, subtle and indirect economic devices. Example they need Africa to be the one of the market of their commodities, hence they introduced new firm of colonialism in different parts of Africa. The policies of strong nations, especially USA and Soviet Union. During the cold war period (1945-1990) both USA and USSR wanted to expand their respective areas of influence for these they decided to exploit the economic needs of the new states. Example, though loan supply and military aids, control over the international economy and economic institution as well as multinational corporations. Third World nations continued to depend on developed countries. The dependence of the new states upon the former colonial states for ruling raw materials as well as for purchasing industrial goods from them also brought into existence of neocolonialism. This is due to fact that, the traditional economic upon colonial power continued even after attainment of independence. Example, poverty among African countries makes them to depend on their former colonial masters, hence introduction of Neocolonialism. Furthermore, the emergency of new system of colonialism that is last stage of imperialism brought some of the impacts to developing countries, those are the following; Led to the ocute poverty in the developing countries due to the control of the world market, and fixing the prices of the agricultural raw materials from low developed countries. Much exploitation of resources of the developing countries, heavy conditions imposed by colonialist in African nations, For instance accepting loans with high interest. All these lead to ocute poverty among the third world countries. It led to political instability in many developing countries due to civil war and interstate wars. E.g., the conflicts that happen in Somalia, Angola, DRC as well as Southern Sudan. These may also influenced by Multipart system which lead the division among the members of the country to collide each other for instance in DRC. It led to economic dependence and problems due to export and import economy, harsh economic conditions, part by developed countries to the low developed countries and control of the world market in which the price of agricultural raw materials from third world countries keep of changing due to price fluctuation. Neo colonialism led to total underdeveloped due to economic, political and cultural evils imposed in the third world countries by the developed nations, like devaluation of currencies, cost sharing in social services, paying high interest rate from the loan offered in the developing countries and exploitation of the resources of the third world countries done by Neo colonialism. Apart from all explained above concern with methods, features, causes as well as impacts of neocolonialism in third world countries, now let's look on how African countries can escape from this new system of colonialism, and to be free from all sphere of life. The following are the measures to be taken by developing countries so as to overcome existing exploitation; To avoid Civil Wars and political conflicts that brings about economic backwardness and concentrates much on political issues. Civil Wars and political conflicts lead the members of the country to fail to engage in production thus resulting to be dependence. To reduce export dependency and having more dependence on the consumption of goods in their countries will raise not only their tax income of the state but also the livelihood of local business. The decision again cannot be made without the strong Government. To develop science and technology, this can be done through encouraging science subjects so as to come up with new idea this will help to escape from foreign ideas. This will make developing nations to be free technologically due to depend much on foreign technology which always exploit the resources within low developed nations. CONCLUSION.
