WHATEVER THE STORY VOCATIONAL EDUCATION IS IMPORTANT TECHNOLOGICAL EXPLOIT IT IS PROFOUND IT MUST BE PRIORITISED. EDUCATION IS THE GAME CHANGER . WE HAVE THE MAN POWER TO BUILD RAILWAYS ACCROSS THE CONTINENT WE HAVE AREAS THAT WE CAN FIND METALS WE NEED METALURGIST TO DO THESE WORKS WE NEED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS TO RUN POWER ACCROSS THE CONTINENT WE NEED ENGINEERS TO BUILD RFESOVOIRS DAMS EDUCATION IS THE GAME CHANGER. CERTAIN COUNTRY NEEDS TO MAKEW FIUVE YEAR PLANS WHERE THEY SEND X AMMOUNT OF EXTRA ORDINARY STUDENTS ABORAD TO GAIN EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE IN THE FIELDS THAT MAKE DEVELOPMENT A EASIER PRACTICAL ASSET SO THAT WE CAN DEAL WITH OTHER PALYERS ON EQUAL FOOTING. MANY COUNTRIES BACK POFF AFRICA THEY FEEL ALL AFRICA WANTS TO DO IS BEG?? WE NEED THESE DEVELOPE NATIONS TO COME IN PARTNER MEANS , EXACTLY WHAT THE WORD SAYS PARTNER OFR EVERY TOP POSITION THERE IS A LOCAL IF NOT FULLY TRAINED 'OJT' (ON THE JOB TRAINING). EVERY SKILL THINKABLE WE NEED THOUSANDS OF TRAINED SKILLED [PERSONEL WE NEED WELDERS ELECTRICIANS CARTPENTERS CHEMICAL PAHRAMACUTICALS BIOLOGIST PHYSICISTSENIOR MANAGEMENT. WE NEED SKILLED CIVILSERVNTS THEY ARE THE BACKBONE OF THE NATION THEY KEEP IT TICKING. SHOULD THERE BE ASHORFALL IN THE CIVIL SERVICE RANKS THEN GOVERNMENT WILL BE DISORGANISED AND THEFT AND FRAUD FLAGRANT. EDUCATION IS THE GAMBIT WHAT WE DONT KNOW WE TRADE FOR IT KNOWLEDGE IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE TRADING IN. I MIGHT BE WRONG WHAT IS THINK MANDELA WAS HOPINMG FOR IN SOUTH AFRICA WAS THAT THE WHITES WOULD HAVE SHOWED GRACE AND TRAINED THE BLACK SOUTH AFRICAN IN EVERY FACET OF DEVBELOPMENTAL PROCEDURES WHERE BY EMPOWERING THEM TO COMPETET EQUALLY HAVING INDISCRIMINATION AS A RIGHT OF WAY. INSTEAD WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS THE FEW BLACKS EMPOWERED AND THE WHITES MORE ENTRENCHED IN SOUTH AFRICA THAN EVER. THE SOUTHERN PART OF AFRICA HAS NOT BENIFITED FROM WHITE OWNNERSHIP OF ANY LEVEL FO ANY PART OF DEVELOPENT. EDUCATION IS FUNDAMENTALY FLAWED WHEN IT COMES TO MOST AFRICANS. WE NEED MORE DICIPLINE IN ALL AFRICA . THE WAYS OF OUR ANCIENST ARE A GOOD STARTING POINT , WE ARE BEING DISTRACTED BY TOO MANY NIGHT CLUBS THIS HAPPY GO LUCKY LIFE , BEFORE IS PROCEED IN AFRICAN VILLAGES THRUOUT AFRICA EVERYONE HAD APART TO PLAY DURING THE DAY THERE WAS NO IDLE HANDS ON BOARD NO WHERE IN AFRICA AS WE SEE TODAY. WE NEED TO STOP THE ALCOHOL THE DRUGS THESE THINSG ATRE MANUFACTURED WITH THE AFRICAN IN MIND EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING TO STOP HIS OR HER DEVELOPMENT. THIS IS THE WAY FO WORLD. WEHN I HEAR ABOUT THE DRINKING IN AFRICA IT RREMINDS ME OF THE WEST WHEN THEY DESTROYED THE INDEGENOUS AMEERICANS WITH ALCOHOL "POISON WATER" THEY CALLED IT. AFRICA NEEDS GOOD ROADS PAVED ROADS IN URBAN AREAS DRAINS IN RURAL SO THEY DONT SUFFER TOO MUCH FLODING AS WE KNOW RAIL WAYS THAT LINK THE CONTINENT IS VITAL.STEP UP SO WE CAN STEP UP IDENTIFY THE PROBLEMS AND GET HELP WITH INTENTIONS OF MASTERING ALL PROBLEMS WE NEED MORE MASTERS IN AFRICA BLACK MASTERS OF TECHNOLOGY VOCATIONAL ANDENGINEERING MASTERS OF ALL ACADEMICS. AFRICA SHOULD BE KNOWN TODAY AS THE SPONGE!!!!!!!
