Mother Africa: Thou Art A Continent
My first book Mother Africa: Thou Art A Continent A Collection Of Essays is a book whose time has come. I write not to either belittle Africa or to degrade Africa. This book is as informative as it is educational, for it sheds a positive light on Africa and some readers have thanked me for my bravery.
An Akan Proverb: "Se Ankasa Nam Ho Ewe Biowu" One ends up chewing the bone if one refuses to talk about the meat.
--Excerpts--
"Africa, the modern day misunderstood continent of all the continents had existed, is still existing and will continue to exist." Her plentiful raw materials come to feed the machinery of the western world and thus make her wheels of fortune turn; as Africa, unfortunately grows poor through manipulations.
What is Africa? Where is Africa? What is Africa made up of? Africa is a very huge landmass. It is the second largest continent after Asia. Many a time, people who have very little knowledge about this beautiful continent, think of it as a small place which is not even part of our civilized world. To the misinformed folks, come and let us together, wear our intellectual spectacles so as to read and place Africa at her proper position. This land is not a tiny country, a place or a state. It is truly, a huge continent, which has many countries.
