Constructing an image of "Father of a country" for
any one, should pass through the critical scrutiny and his contribution towards
the fabric of the Nation. The legacy should be questioned. The tag "Father
of Country" will erase much of the wrong decisions and doings. It
increases the social acceptance without being contested. When this tag and his
legacy are tagged with any political party, it enhances popularity and
criticism both. Mzee Kenyataa was declared as father of the country in Kenya,
he ruled for 15 years like a king, placed opposition leaders in house arrest,
shared many lands and benefits to his own people. Still the country is
idolizing him.
Making an Icon for any country and above all considering him
as the Father Of the country is a process. In this process, he has to tolerate
the friction of time and to face the critics. Sometime he is to being ignored
and often getting prestige. Father of a
nation is a legend who is remembered for his sacrifice and identity. The tenacity
of this type of role models always goes through a meticulous social experiment.
It is a real litmus test to become a father of the nation and being worshiped
by the people. They not only provide ideas but also emulate a pattern of constituent
roles and inspire individual life by enlightening the soul.
Scrutiny & evaluate the legacy and let the history and
people decide, who should be remembered as the father of the country. Because history is made by these legends.
