AFRICA, A First World

Introduction

Growing up in an environment where there was an absolute absence of incentives to support a comfortable deserving existence of humans, and in a family that didn’t understand and have the means to provide a good life to a young human, was a golden opportunity to understand the dire situation of African society. Through the utilization of current technologies of the world, I was able to understand what it means to live in and be part of it. It dawned on me that most of the African societies are nowhere close to living as inclusive citizens of the world.

The future of Africans is in jeopardy, and faith alone is not enough to guarantee a better future. Some may debate the above bold statement with statistics based on potentials, but these are the same statistics we have had since independence.With a focus on Sub-Saharan Africa, this book is a product of an unending desire to change the path which Africa is following. This book lights up the past precolonial and colonial Africa, the current Africa showing how the economic resources of the continent have been unwittingly captured; and recommends practical guidelines that may change the future of Africa forever.
