Sometimes in other to achieve you must do things that obsevers things are madly. But, When madness is orderly it is key that opens the great doors.

The African history is written with blood, it is a history of defeats and victories. Whenever a people found themselves defeated they had but one option: to rise up and regain their freedom by all means.

However, the African history is not just a history about people who want to rise again for freedom, it is a history about people who struggle first for their return to the state of human being. That is the result of more than 400 years of dehumanization, alienation, slavery, denial of self-identification and self-knowledge that Africans went through.

Africa has always been and still is a land potentially rich in water, oxygen, forests, oil and other precious minerals essential for sustainable development of the human society. Despite all the richness of Africa many young Africans hardly find pleasure in living in Africa, simply because of joblessness, poverty, hunger, insecurity and political crisis that impedes any progress.

As a result, many young Africans have dreams located overseas where they hope to find a future for themselves, which mostly turns into nightmares, and for those who are willing to stay in Africa many find themselves living in exile on their own land.

In the end, whatever happens to Africa in this twenty-first century will depend solely on the choices Africans make and the price they are willing to pay for their choices.

According to a Greek Philosopher. It is in the nature of man to jail small thief's an elect the big ones into public offices. That's the tragedy of Africa.

We live in a continent today were our young girls upon attaining purbity cannot afford sanitary pads,, but our public servants have Ipads which they do not know how to use it.

We live in a continent today were our leaders who presided over our health sectors have no faith in the health sector, when they're sick and their families are sick they ran away to seek treatment in Germany, France, Spain, the United Kingdom, United States an India. Even our health ministers did not have faith in our health departments.

We live in a continent today were our political leadership have no faith in our educational sectors. They bring onto us what they called free primary education or universal primary education, but they can never bear take their children's to those schools.
