“Best kept secret in today's world economy"

Take out all the negative information about your continent from your mind. Allow me to share positive information about our Africa.

Africa is one of the second largest continents in the world. Africa is larger than China, USA, and Europe combined. The continent is also the least crowded place on earth.

Africa is the richest in human and natural sources. There are so many African workers and intellectuals who built Africa and other continents. United States of America was built by Africans. As soon as the door to the Noble Prize started opening for Africans in the 1950s, after colonialism and slavery, Africans were able to demonstrate to the world their excellence in sciences, arts and peace making.

Other natural resources in Africa include ancient books, medicine, diamond, gold, petroleum, natural gas, copper, medicines, cobalt, uranium, lead, potash, forest, coltan and many more others minerals. Eighty percent of the world’s known reserves of coltan are found in Africa. Coltan in used as a “vital components in electronic devices, ranging widely from mobile phones to laptop computers,” according to wikipedia.org.

Mostly non Africans are currently making most money for their investment in Africa. According to the UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, "Africa's profitability is one of the best kept secrets in today's world economy."

Now it is our time to make a profit from our continent. Let’s invest our time, money, and knowledge in our continent. Even if we cannot trade, open factories, educate people, or move to Africa now, we can start thinking positively about Africa prosperity and unity. Globalization forces us to become broad minded. Division limits our growth. Our culture also directs us to choose unity.
