What you need to know:
Relations with neighbours: How people relate with each other is important in our country, and how we relate with our neighbours in Africa and beyond is always very important.
Glass half full: It is good to be optimistic that things are going to work out. If things were addressed properly and issues resolved, it would be for the good of everyone.
Tackling challenges: We need to understand what it is that we haven’t been getting right for all these years in terms of development. Africans have to make a choice. Are we comfortable being where we are, or have been for decades?
Talk is not enough: People say the right things. We can even see the passion with which they talk about it. That’s a good step because everything else is built on that, but then that alone is not enough.
New ideas: Have confidence that you can do something for yourself, and maybe for others.
