Good governance and leadership Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

Now is the right time for youths to take pert in making decision that affects them, as they are the future leaders for good governance and leadership in Africa, because gone are the days when decision making is left in the hands of the adults alone. Youth have their own way of making things right, and if they are not given the chance to express themselves, especially in the matters that affects them, good governance and leadership will hardly be achieved.

All the eight millennium development goals of the united nations ,“eradicating poverty and extreme hunger, to achieve universal primary education, to promote gender equality, to reduce child mortality, combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases, ensure environmental sustainability, develop global partnership …”, should be the priority in the pursuit of set out goals of every good governance and leadership because if these eight goals are achieved, the world becomes a paradise which cannot be achieved by some, but all.

I am of the opinion that time has come when we shall say a maximum and capital yes to good governance and leadership and say an audible no to the governance and leadership prescribing to the “ it doesn’t matter attitude” in Africa. Let us, together, take the bull by the horn because in togetherness much is achieved. May I also state here that when there is good governance and leadership- the people rejoice, and I will not stop until good governance and leadership invades Africa, and only then, we shall enjoy our dear African continent.
