  We Africans are the cause of our own problems. All we do is pointing fingers. Why don't we challaenge our governments and prove to them we can do better by coming out with solutions and taking the initiatives ourselves by coming in groups to make a positive impacts in our native villages or in our neighborhoods. Time wait for no man. If we don't start today to try in our own little way to make a positive impact our future generations will suffer the more. And how do we expect our future generations to make it better when all they saw us do is finger-pointing the failure of our governments and not bringing solutions for a change. Our fore-fathers fought against the slave-trades and it is our collective duties to bring ideas together, know-hows, initiatives and monies to jointly produce renewable energy, create jobs etc as our contribution to make ghana a better place. We shouldn't wait for ghanaians get drowned in Lampedusa just in seek of greener pastures and better lives. We can make Ghana a paradise. Good day fellow Ghanaians.

  Africa, we must restrain from our indiscipline to put our efforts into what is right of doing. The youth to stop overrlying on polical actors and work hard at all sectors in overcoming poverty and also have a taste of sustainable development. Because indiscipline act has overwhelmed our society everywhere.
