 Happy African Day

Today we celebrate unity in diversity across Africa

Love and understanding keeping us going

Despite corruption and lack of social amenities we still come out strong and outstanding

Like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala,Aliko Dangote,Elon Musk,Tidjane Thiam doing exploit

Africa Day is a day we celebrate our cultural heritage,music and food

It's a day we think of how much   of our potential and creativity have change the world

Is a day we reflect of things we haven't become if they is dream of grow and become a develope nation

For they must be a planting for there to be harvest

The future of Africa is up to us 

When the world will see Africa in it purest form

 So much in 21st century that we can literally get as much pleasure as we want, yet people find less fulfilment in things... Despondency are now become a routine for people

People smile to cover the pain they feel inside 

Students trying to get good grades despite having failed expectations

Doctors treating sick patient while his own to face problem

Lots of graduate in the street, no demand of labour

Banker's facing financial crises

Pastors acting all superman while facing lack of care, finance trouble and betrayals

People faking identity because they want the society to accept them

Hope of many fading away because of a failed political system

In this garden of gravity we just have to be strong to survive

The otherside is what many don't want to talk about
