Africa, dynamic, vibrant motherland, the splendor and beauty of an entire continent filled with people of varying ethnicities, languages, rich cultures, and heritage.
The sights and sounds of history reverberate loudly across one continent awakening the radiance of nature in it's purest state.
From the peak of the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, to the Nile River to the summits of the Kilimanjaro mountains, from high above the Mulanje Mountains in Malawi, down the Draa Valleys of Morroco.
From the magnificent African Renaissance Monument in Senegal down to the depths of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. The Snowcapped Rwenzori Mountains and the source of the Nile in Uganda. From the luscious radiance of the exotic riding Safari in Kenya to the vast sandy plains of the Sahara in Morocco and the ancient cultures of Benin and the Nok culture in Nigeria.
The undeniable beauty of Africa is indeed a spectacle to behold, the vast array of culture and magnificence is simply overwhelming.
Oh, my African dream.
I dream of a united Africa, where All African countries come together, share resources, and work as one for the progress of the continent.
I dream of an all-inclusive Africa, where we speak with one voice.
I dream of an Africa free from political instability, ethnic and religious intolerance.
I dream of an Africa free from violence, corruption, social injustice, and gender inequality.
I dream of an Africa where every African has access to free and quality education, and universal health care.
I dream of an Africa where elections are conducted free and fair and the voices of the electorate are reflected in the votes.
I dream of an Africa with visionary and transformative leaders working for the progress of their citizens, country, and Africa.
I dream of an Africa where youth power and energy are harnessed and guided.
I dream of an Africa where women are in leadership positions and the girl child has access to equal opportunities.
I dream of an Africa where citizens’ rights are upheld especially women and children. I dream of an Africa where unemployment is a thing of the past and economic opportunities abound.
I dream of an Africa were innovation and creativity are harnessed for the development of the continent.
I dream of an Africa where everyone has access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene.
I dream of an Africa free from poverty and hunger.
I dream of an Africa where animals are protected and the environment is free from pollution. This is the Africa we want.
We all need to collaborate and ACT NOW to bring our African dream to fruition
