Education: The key to Africa's Futuer in the 21st Century

Africa is no doubt blessed with wonderful natural resources that hold so much potential to bring about development for the continent. However, where the continent has failed is the development of its Human resources. Not enough is done to add value to the manpower in Africa and that is why the Africa's natural resources are lying idle and not exploited for the good of its people.

Community leaders, parents and other stakeholders need to wake up and realize that it is imperative to invest in the children and youth of Africa. An educated and enlighted citizenry will not be easily swayed and misused by corrupt and selfish leaders.

Vigilance among the citizens can only be assured from a people who have the knowledge to make the right choices about their day to day lives.

The 21st Century will only be bright if we truly focus on transformational education for our children
