             apply these for the express purpose of fulfillment of
             the overall purpose of the nation and the continent.

             Leaders are not only those occupying seats somewhere in
             public office. No. Leaders are those whose hearts are geared
             towards ensuring that the current and future generations each
             maximize their potential, by creating space for them to do so.


             How on earth can this then fit into a Capitalist or Socialist or
             any other ‘ist’ model on the planet? There is no space for this
             type of  narrative, even in what people have termed  Demo-
             cratic or Autocratic spaces. Not even in Theocratic ones. Any
             system that a man has set up outside of the will of God dies,
             plain and simple. This is not a complex reality to comprehend.


             The sooner the men and women and children of Afrika hum-
             ble themselves before the Living God, acknowledging that they
             actually know nothing and begging Him to restore them to their
             places and purposes and asking Him to lead them, the sooner
             we can get to our position as A People Called Afrika and no
             one and nothing can be able to stop a continent or a people
             given over to their Maker. They will do what they were origi-
             nally blessed to do and their impact will transform the world.
