KEY TAKEAWAYS
Now is the time the post-independence generation is beginning to ask questions but the younger generation are failing to see how they can be involved.
The mandate of our previous leaders has been to take us out but it is now a question of creating a sustainable society.
Now there is a mandate to take the African children out from economic deprivation into success and empowering them to take control and give a voice for Africa.
You need the certain right fundamentals in place – the right political vision, the right policies in place along with educated and informed people. Young people need to understand what’s going on and what makes a good government.
In trying to understand and solve the problems we have we have to go back to the roots and it has to be a societal change. It starts in your household and needs to build momentum from there. If you can’t say sorry on a microlevel how can you say it on a macrolevel?
It’s a mentality shift that comes through going back to the teaching of the bible and looking to those countries that have succeeded.
