Abstract
The purpose of this Article is to show how Ayikwei Armah has used "The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born" to reflect the Socio-Economic and political realities of the entire continent of Africa, with regard to the man-handling of the Economic phase of the different countries of Africa through the misuse of political powers by the African leaders. This development normally pushes the citizens of the different African countries into moral decadence. This research work aims at exploring the implications of Ayi Kwei Armah's focus in writing this novel.
