G54 UBUNTU HOME GROWN SOLUTIONS

Our mission is to create a manufacturing and independent Africa. We want to create a competitive Africa where all our professionals and professions are put to good use into developing the Africa we want. We have seen, over the years, Africa becoming a dumping ground for substandard goods. Furthermore, we have seen Africa importing things that it can export. We have seen Africa not integrated physically but integrated in the books. Now we need an African Approach to African Problems, we need to tackle all problems in our homeland using available resources and technology including technological transfers and collaboration. We understand that no man is an Island and no country is an island, at this juncture, we want to contribute to the global village not as buyers but sellers, not as importers but exporters, not as researchers but manufactures. I and we believe that a better Africa begins with us by uniting and offering home-grown solutions to African problems. We need the designs, not the workman. We need the components, not the products. Not only that, but we have our engineers, scientist, economist and social scientist who are able to ensure that we can make Africa great again. We are calling upon all professionals that have the same mindset to come under the Ubuntu emblem. To come under the peoples' movement towards creating the Africa we want. We need to push policies that are indigenous so that we can create an economy that is strong and can stand when the world speaks. We have the free trade area, but we are not yet trading, and we are not prioritized. With that in mind we can move away from academic inflation by instilling technical skills in our engineers, we can move from academic inflation to instilling practical skills in our economists and social scientists. We can move from academic inflation by instilling critical thinking and logic in our scientists. Africa can be great again.
