Africa the Way Forward

About the Book

This book was born of the desire to share my feelings and concerns and that of others who are so much concerned about how the continent of Africa has remain dormant for centuries in terms of development and progress. Being an African and having seen the forward movement, progess and development of the other continent around the world, you begin to wonder why it has not been replicated in the Afriican continent. The continent of Africa has great resources more than many other continent in the world, both human and natural resources. However, these resources has not benefited the common people of the continent. The West, Arabs and recently Asia has enjoyed these resources more than Africans themselves. From the slave trade where the carted away our able men and women, to resources control through colonization and recently through brain drain. Our specialists and well qualified has migrated to other continents such as Europe, America and Asia leaving the continent dry in terms of qualified personnel who can man and managed the resources of the continent. These has contributed to poverty lack of quality leadership in many areas that would have moved the continent forward. After world war, America implemented Marshal plan that was used to transform and develop the Western nations. However, this kind of joint policy has not come to the mind of the West to implement in Africa where they have benefited much. Rather the continent of Africa is seen and address as the dark continent. I therefore, feel that bringing to mind of many both Africans and the West, the things we need to address to move Africa forward. I believe that if some of the points looked at in this book and other brilliant ideas by others are implemented, then the continent of Africa can emerge out of its aclaimed darkness and move forward like other continent. Let the world and African leaders learn from the history of the past and invent new ways of doing things so that they can move Africa forward in a progressive path. Strongly I believe if this is done, the Story of the continent of Africa can change like that of China. The West should desist from ripping Africa off, abstain from aiding and abetting corruption and bad leadership in the continent. The people of Africa should fight and resist wicked and corrupt political leaders, and bring to death tribal - nepotic and support of politics of clientism.
