Africa is a continent endowed with natural resources such as fertile land, minerals, forests, wildlife and a warm tropical climate. Besides, it has communities with diverse cultures which attract tourists from other parts of the world. However, for a long time, the continent has experienced social, political and environmental challenges like political instability, despotic leadership, civil wars, refugees, hunger, poverty and diseases among others. In this article, we apply key principles of postcolonial theory to analyse the various images of Africa as depicted by Kenyan poet Kithaka wa Mberia in his works. We argue that the poet as a committed and critical writer has depicted negative images about Africa as a challenge to Africans and its leadership to address those issues. For instance, he shows African leaders and governments as being corrupt and inept in their governance. As a result, there are rampant cases of corruption, tribalism and dictatorship which create little or no room for equality, democracy, freedom of speech and the rule of law. But on the other hand, the poet portrays some positive images of Africa including the beautiful natural sceneries, mountains, forests, wildlife, rivers, beaches and a conducive climate. We shall draw our examples from Kithaka wa Mberia’s five anthologies namely; Mchezo wa Karata (A Game of Cards), Bara Jingine (Another Continent), Msimu wa Tisa (The Ninth Season), Redio na Mwezi (Radio and the Moon) and Rangi ya Anga (Colour of the Sky).
