Africa's major issue is a leadership and governance one. We are the richest continent in terms of resources, yet the poorest in terms of living standards. We are the laughing stock of the world, even as our resources go to help other places become heaven.
In Africa, certain Presidents have been yearning to extend their grip in power. I don't know whether it's a good or bad thing that President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda and Paul Kagame of Rwanda have hinted that they will extend their terms.
Good governance and leadership is the major stumbling block for Africa's progress. Asia developed even when it did not have term limits for President. There leaders catered for their people. I'm thinking of Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore and Prime Minister Ibrahim of Malaysia. They transformed their countries from Third World to First World in a record 25 years, something that took Europe over 200 years.
If Africa is to develop, we need such leaders. It is a pity that our leaders are sell outs and only care about themselves and their masters in Europe and America. Read More Articles. Click Here
