How has the vast ethnic diversities of many African countries affected the ability to be independent nations?

Etnic diversities do not necessarily affect African Nations' ability to be independent nations- they help build a nation with diverse cultures and values. However- the thing that affects many African nations is tribalism- this was especially cultivated by former colonial nations as they used divide and rule tacticts where they went to different tribes and made them fight one another - this has caused mistrust and jealousy amongst various tribes and this is what affects a lot of African nations- there is too much mistrust , hate and anger amongst varying tribes and this in turn slows down productivity and progress of nations ( They spend time fighting and arguing- they cannot trust one another but will trust a foreigner( particularly from the West)
