All thoughts maybe justifiedly argued that the evils of colonialism in Africa lead oit the root of the rise of African nationalism.It is undoubtably true that the rise of African nationalism was catalysed by the second world war.Acess the validity of this statement

African nationalism
African nationalism is a political movement for Pan-Africanism and for national self-determination. Political interest began in the 1870s and political organizations started to form in the 1890s. In the years after World War II, African nationalism gained strength, resulting in independence for Libya in 1951 and Ghana in 1957. All but six African countries were independent nation-states by 1966.

Like most people, I'm very suspicious of statements like this.

Your second statement especially is too absolute and too vague, and should be reworded perhaps to read [such and such event (which happened as a result of/in the aftermath/during WWI)] was a catalyst for African nationalism. That way your claim isn't so general and can be more easily defended. For e.g., you could talk about the formation of the UN, and what it meant for (African) peoples directly/indirectly ruled by foreign countries. In the rhetoric of prominent pan-African activists and leaders I'm certain you can find talk or comment on self-determination.
