"Dear Editor

I liked your article - passionately argued. You sound like where I am at the moment - fed up with African mediocrity, excuses, cowardice and lies, but passionate about the continent!

Dear Editor

You have made my day with the quote from Winston Churchill at the end of the article. That was great!

Dear Editor

I read this article with great interest. Africans have to work hard as to secure the continent as the next destination for outsourcing businesses from all over the world. This must be a realistic way for creating jobs for many of our graduates throughout the continent.

Brain drain:

Intellectuals running away from poverty,
The youth have no vision for the future,
People escaping, fighting against gravity,

Brain gain:

Intellectuals coming back to build prosperity,
The youth gather to build a strong culture,
People returning, thriving for a better humanity,
