    Titime for our leaders to look at al the prospects that will enshrine Africa for the African people. What I would like our brothers to see is that the west were those who abused thier preveligedges in Africa they stole our people destroyed looted pillaged the lands and it is now time for us to pick up the pieces.When we start to pick up the pieces we wont throw any away we will use eveery value bit we have to insure that we never ever suffer these types of onslaught ever in wolrd hsitory again. As proud and dignified people honest righteouss people it is imperative that we look forward wityh heads held high we have nothing to feel down about.we know what type of people we are dealing with so we are careful not to let them mash our corns". We must never allow them to step on our feet again. Many Africans perished under their yoke we must not have disdain for these barbarians but look at them with pity ; they still have not learned anything from thier crimes. They are persitant criminals witjhout remorse, we must learn from thier covetious and greedy undignified past. we must stand up and represnt oru foreparenst who were martyred by these wicked men and uplift our youths teaching them a progressive way . When we start to see success we must pass it along so it is maintained so many can eat food from the tree and branches of success. Africa needs food and to have excess is not amioings ense when we could have a contract wih our neighbour who probably has a short in hsi production so this si why a significant system of technology with market information should be broadcast so everyone is up to date on what we have and what we need.Each one teach one " each one help one" One thing for sure we dontw ant to be competing with each other that is a waste of fertile lands and space , if we know Senegal is tmatoes onions carrots etc Niger is casava planatin green bannansa , Mali is potatoes, turnip, green, peas etc. with these types of corporation within statess we fill the baskets of a common ineterest we feed all our nations and we all eat food financially!!!!!!!!!! ECOWAS needs to step up forget about warfare in Mali ;they wont have it, they want to deal withj thier own crisis, they want to resolve thier issues with thier own sensibilities, they do notr want to keep Frnace as thier head master they want top dissolve the french affair."Each one teach one "
