MOVING FORWARD

It's common to hear some Africans foolishly suggest that we need a bloody revolution to move forward. Yes, it's actually not totally untrue. Development usually follows such things, depending on the leaders involved. I mean, after the Nigerian Civil War, came our first and last major development in infrastructure and other areas. Rawlings' cleansing was what made Ghana move to its current manageable height today. Rwanda's genocide was the prelude to their development which has now put them on top of Africa. Same thing in South Africa and a few other places. But even though bloodshed has produced such results, it doesn't make it the best solution. The best solution is actually much more simpler and easier. 

 

Africa's biggest problem is lack of love. If you can't love your neighbor, love yourself at least. Develop yourself, gather knowledge, travel (if you can), keep an open mind and stop adopting twisted theories. If we all do this, Africa would automatically shoot upward. But we have to do it carefully and quietly, so our enemies would not know what we are up to.
