We speak to Nigerian author, NNAMDI CHIEKWU, a millennial who explains why he's angryv and what he plans to do about it. Basically, Nnamdi says, he's hugely disappointed with the generation that has come before him, that has left the African continent in such bad shape that he and his cohort need to lead 'a technocratic revolution' in order to revive its fortunes.
He's scathing of earlier generations: 'why didn't they take up the fight? They didn't have the courage. They wanted to …ingratiate themselves into a western-led world. They had no confidence..in what..an African-led world looked like.'
Theres so much to do in a veery short times. Nnamdi believes that Africa has a mere 5 years in which to turn itself around or face dire consequences. 'We've reached our last chance as Africans, as civilisations. And that last chance is 2030' he says.
He feels so strongly he's written a book ' AFRICA ON THE PRECIPICE' in which he lays out his theory of Afro-hegemony - a time when Africa and its peoples will dominate global affairs. But in order to reach that state of greatness, Africa's sub-Saharan nationals have to come together as one in a kind of loose federation.
Nnamdi puts the case for his generation..'When we millennials look at the Africa we've inherited, we're saying why are we listening to you? You people are lost. You don't have a direction. You don't have a plan for us. So we're going to take power.'
AFRICA ON THE PRECIPICE by Nnamdi Chiekwu is available on Amazon. It's also in audiobook form on Spotify.
