Africa needs a new class of revolutionary builders

Yes, it is time to resurrect the revolutionary spirit in Africa. Africa needs a new class of revolutionary builders.

Builders who will not just copy socialism of the East or democracy of the West, but who are prepared to search in the African Spirit and heritage then build new systems that specifically works for Africans.

In Africa today, where are the Lions, the revolutionary Thunderhawks, and the nation-building Visionaries with iron in their souls? Whose inner being commands global respect just by its regal nature?

The warriors who live and lead with a great love for their people, and who would rather enter a coffin than to betray the welfare and further development of their people!

But in Africa today a desolate picture presents itself.

What you mostly have, with few exceptions, are African leaders Iscariot who betray their people for 30 pieces of silver (loans and status quo), and pitilessly lead them to socioeconomic crucifixion!

But even as the tombstone of Africa is apparently closed, the world will witness the African Spirit resurrect into a renaissance under the leadership of a new class of emerging Lions, revolutionary Thunderhawks and nation-building Visionaries.

And then “the lukewarm will be spewed out” in leadership, so only those leaders who are serious about bringing value and progress to the African people will remain.

The mandate is clear: perform in office, or be taken out of office. No longer should wretchedness in leadership be tolerated in Africa. The people have to raise their standard to get better leadership, and remember that the best leader for them might come from a different tribal group!

A new class of revolutionary builders are needed with a firm love for God and their people, and an unwavering commitment to ensure the progress and continuous development of Africa for the welfare of the African people and the benefit of the world community.

Lions of Africa, here the call and step forward.

Onward & Upward!
