One response to “Bill Gates “Africa can live up…”

  1. AvatarFrancis Bismarck March 3, 2011 at 1:57 pm

    I remain to concur with what Bill Gates has stated. If Africa is to realise this promise, hard working will have to start from household level…and most importantly, without considering ones career/professional background. In this more volatile and complicated environment of today, diversification can never be undermined. To diversfy from say, mechanical engineering, Accountancy, nurcing etc etc… into farming, BE IT CROP OR ANIMAL HUSBANDRY, can yield enigmatic results. I, for one,a qualified Accountant by profession have also ventured into farming starting from the 2010/2011 growing season. The hussles i have gone through are manageable for every dedicated human yet very beautiful and untold results both at subsistence as well as commercial level…..

    Big up Africa!!! Lets go farming..
