Speaking at the World Peace Forum as an African Ambassador

By the Grace of God I was recently invited to speak on a panel as an African Ambassador for the World Peace Forum Leadership Series, hosted by the World Mission Society Church of God. The panel was moderated by the talented Chief White House Correspondent for Africa, Hariana Veras, with whom I am now glad to be professionally connected as well as to the other panelists.

I would also like to acknowledge the other talented panelists I had the pleasure to work with: Dr. Joseph Sany, Former Vice President of the Africa Center at the US Institute of Peace; and Johanna LeBlanc, JD, LLM, Partner at The Adomi Group and Adjuct Professor at Howard University.

I am privileged for this opportunity and see the working of higher guidance from the Lord already on my professional path. I will reiterate that I see everything given to me—spiritual abilities, earthy talents and credentials, and all doors that may open—as first and foremost a Divine loan for service to God, and then subsequently as a tool to be a helper and guardian of the welfare and further development of the African people. Everything else is consequential. May God grant me power and guidance for this work, so that in the discharge of my duty, my life may bring honor to Him and help to my People.

Through blessing and guidance from above, and committed people on Earth prepared to diligently work toward the high goal of African nation-building, Africa will resurrect and rise to unprecedented heights. May God grant it!

Here is a summary video of the event. The background song in the video is fittingly “Eyes of Heaven” by Medwyn Goodall. Onward & Upward!💫
