Africa Development Bailout

The book provides vital information on the strategies that are required to be considered for the development of Africa as a continent and the entire world. The book emphasizes on the need for competence based recruitment, promotion and appointment if development is of concern. It further emphasizes on the importance of strategic thinking on every matter if Africa wants development. We realize that Africa is a leading continent on applauding religion but the least in development. It is one of the leading continent on pilgrims on both Christians and Muslim but the least in development.

We realize that Africa is a leading continent on applauding religion but the least in development. It is one of the leading continent on pilgrims on both Christians and Muslim but the least in development. This suggest that African need liberation of mind for proper articulation of every thing including what we believe so as to give a proper value which will facilitate development. Any practice that causes mark timing/ not moving ahead should be considered inferior. We must weigh every effort in relation to development. Systems of elections must be linked with development. Not mere filling people on houses of parliament with what is considered as democracy. Not at all. We must link with each development.
