Dr Abu Sakara to speak at CEBSAR Africa Public Lecture

2012 Presidential Candidate and leader of National Interest Movement (NIM), Dr Abu Sakara Foster will this morning give keynote speech at the Centre for Better Society and Advocating (CEBSAR Africa) Public Lecture at the University of Cape Coast.

The event themed "Building a Prosperous Society for all and not few" is set to get students of the university enlightened on the change Ghana needs to make her democracy functional and on the role of the youth in delivering that change.

"Dr Abu Sakara Foster was invited by CEBSAR Africa because of his wealth of insightful knowledge and experience in Ghanaian politics. He is a astute statesman and politician of integrity and strong convictions," the President of CEBSAR Africa, Ghanaian PhD Student in Germany, Mr A.K Mensah, said in his invitation.

According to Soil Remediation Scientist, CEBSAR Africa is committed to a rapid transformation towards a sustainable path of accountability and transparency where citizens are aware of their roles and responsibilities to help build a resilient and better society in Africa.

"The theme of this lecture is thus in line with our mission just as it is connected to the vision of Dr Sakara led National Interest Movement," he observed.

NIM is a convergence of independent groups and citizens with a singular mission of pursuing a transformative constitutional and institutional reforms agenda hinged on a People's Charter to make Ghana's democracy functional enough to pull ashore the collective aspirations and dreams of the nation.

Ahead of the event this morning, Dr Sakara said he is excited to engage young people especially university students to help them appreciate their role in driving a transformative agenda for the Ghana because the future belongs to them more than he does to the old. It is therefore their responsibility to secure their future by participating in shaping it.

"The youth cannot continue to lock themselves in entertainment halls and in apathy; they cannot continue to follow the existing duopoly thoughlessly and expect to have expect to have something different and better than what we have today," he said.

Organisers are optimistic that the event scheduled to start 10 O' Clock this morning will be highly patronised.
