When former South African President Thabo Mbeki brought back the notion of an African Renaissance to African political circles in the late 1990s, the continent was at a different place from where it is today.
The concept and practice of African Renaissance needs to be SMART, that is:
Specific: Needs to be GPS led, Good Governance, Sustainable Security and
Progressive Prosperity for all!
Appropriate: Appropriate to the socio-cultural, linguistic and economic
development infrastructure of each country.
Measurable: Measurable with qualitative and quantitative research
methodologies and Specific Measure of Success tools.
Realistic. Realistic to the facts on the ground and meaningful for the
benefit of the current and future demographics, ie. majority that is women
and youth who make up more than 75% of the population.
Time Sensitive. To be implemented with a calendar based productivity
reports that are current and have meaningful benefit in the future.
Most importantly, it has to be generated, owned and made accountable to One
Billion People of Africans and People of African Descent the true stake
holders.
Remember: All African problems stem from the Lord of Poverty that are not
accountable to their respective communities.
Now, the young population are not patient, they are have Alqaeda and M23
supplied by three Gun Maker Nations, USA, UK and Russsia to fuel their
energy for suicide and homicide of Africa.
The Horn, the Riff Valley and Congo basin and now the Magreb are examples
of African Youths who have decided not to wait for the Lords of Poverty to
give them opportunities for productive and gainful employment.
So, the first task is to retire the Geriatric and Incompetent Lords of
Poverty.
Give a proportional opporrtunities that is 70% jobs and governance to women
and youths!
The time is now for the Geriatric African Lords of Poverty to retire and
the new creative youth and women to take over the Renaissance.
Outside this there will be the same old Geriatric and Incompetent talks and
talks of old men
