This is the first time I have agreed to speak to the whole of Africa as a continent and the world at large like this.
This is the first time the world is hearing me speak. The issue as to whether ‘our country’, is the 55th or 57th country in Africa is still pending. Or to describe it as the 8th continent in the World. We might not meet the requirements for a new continent but someday I believe we will. Until then, we remain the unnamed country.
On the affirmative, if we are later attached to Africa, then one day we could be the first African country without a ‘colonial master’. Never discovered, conquered nor required independence.
This is an Island whose inhabitants have a clear mind and conscience. With fresh ideas that could change the whole of Africa.
We believe in our creator, we believe in our country and we believe in ourselves as a country.
It is evident the world has now discovered I am its first leader since it woke up from its slumber. And I am going to ensure I build this nation without a hitch, since I have the whole world to learn from.
Today, I am going to speak on three pertinent issues during this three days.
The first is the mind. The mind is not the brain. The brain is just a physical component of the mind. It is said and moreover believed that Africa is very rich in natural resources but poor in wealth.
“Natural resources are what the other world converts into wealth. But I tell you, natural resources are not necessarily the greatest assets or capital for creating wealth. The greatest capital is human mind.”
Gold could not have spoken to the mind about what it could do. But the mind’s own effort discovered what gold could be used for.
The other world could still have even surpassed their current achievements without the discovery of Africa. They had an opened mind wherever they traveled. As we read from the books we were awaken to, we were able to tell this people traveled a lot to other worlds. I guess that is how they knew we could travel to the moon.
This other world came to Africa for trade and missionary work. And in their quest discovered the unearthed resources we were sitting on. They discovered that with the iceberg we had here, only a tip could build their world. So the took away a tip of the iceberg and “took a few of our fore-fathers along” to discover what our ice could do.
Interestingly, these were the era of ignorance. But we are now in the era of awareness. If in ‘ignorance’ man could with his mind think that by moving to another continent and leaving with a tip of its natural resources and a ‘few’ of its people, he could build his world, How much more can’t we do in “the dawn of a new era.
Yes! We were all in the era of ignorance. And I will say my country was chief. Because we didn’t even know we existed in the first place. It was an advantage for us because no other world country discovered, conquered and gave us independence. We were just awakened into the now.
Today, the larger world has evolved. Technology has advanced. We now have an automation of everything. Automated Cars, Automated Teller Machines, Automated tooth brush and a whole lot.
Artificial Intelligence has set in to even take the world further. All this effort is as a result of the mind. All these discoveries are a result of the mind. Unfortunately, approximately 98% of these witty inventions are from outside the continent of Africa. After we woke up from our sleep, we have seen bright ideas of young people in Africa flushed down the drain. We did not get to read them from books or the internet because, ideas a basically worthless without execution. These young people start out excited by this new idea they have just discovered. After a year or a little above, the fire they started with quenches. And they begin to make excuses why they couldn’t go with that dream.
To be Cont….
