happen when these are refined
and put to God-use. What
Afrikans tend to forget is this,
Afrika has always been spiritu-
ally connected to the Creator
God and because of this and
despite the massive erosion in
culture, we still believe we are
created beings with an eternal
destiny in God. Afrika is eternal- or lawlessness or both would
ly connected to the Divine plan
of God, having provided shelter
to the nation He birthed, Israel
i.e. through Abraham, Joseph
and later Jacob and the rest of
his 11 sons. Through providing
shelter to the young Messiah
when Herod sought to kill Him,
through providing aid to the
Messiah via the shoulders of
Simon the Cyrene in bearing
His cross to Golgotha, through
crucifying Him in spiritual Egypt,
through carrying the redemptive
message via the Ethiopian eu-
nuch and bearing Him up once
again in these end times. We
are the beginning and the end
of things in the story of man on
earth.
The Afrika Opportunity
While the Corona Virus ex-
perience did expose the soft
under-belly of Afrika’s true
socio-economic state beyond
GDP ratings, it also presented
her with great opportunities to
shift things in a dramatically
different direction. Some of the
things exposed were the glaring
financial needs of Afrikans, as
seen in daily wage and low-in-
come earners who make up
the majority in Afrikan coun-
tries. This dearth is actually
what led to some countries not
going into full lock down mode,
because there would be no
way to provide for those who
live on a fixed daily income,
while others chose to distribute
food. Some in an orderly fash-

ion, like Rwanda, while others
embraced pure chaos and
dishonor; treating their brethren
worse than chickens on a farm
causing stampedes and tossing
sacks of food at crowds of peo-
ple. This means that, in 2020, if
an Afrikan country was to shut
down entirely, either starvation
be swift outcomes that these
governments would have to
contend with.
That we have a huge number
of people living on the edge of
financial ruin is not new infor-
mation to Afrikan governments.
That these governments have
done nothing about them for
decades is not new information
to the citizens. That it means
that in a crisis those on the
edge could be facing impending
doom is also not new informa-
tion to either the government
or the citizens. The income
gap in Afrika, coupled with the
blatant wastage of resources
on the part of national and local
governments, the over-inflated
salaries and lavish lifestyles of
politicians and Afrikan leaders…
not new, not strange. The po-
tential impact of this, however,
was again made glaringly evi-
dent during this period. Afrikan
heads of state and government
breathed a collective sigh of
relief when they were promised
funds, tools and equipment to
help resolve this situation, again
demonstrating the clear lack of
preparedness on their part to
manage issues within their bor-
ders. In 2020. Afrikan people,
once again, took up the mantle
and began to innovate, pro-
ducing masks, hand sanitizers,
automated taps and ventilators
– demonstrating that they are
not a bunch of dummies who
need to depend on imports from
any country, but are people with

skills, willingness and drive to
be able to solve problems if
given the opportunity. Which
means, as a priority, Afrika must
re-look its entire approach to
EVERYTHING that it does.
How?
1. Understanding her role
and destiny
The entire world has been
trapped and imprisoned by its
governments for a long time in
a reality that has nothing to do
with its welfare. The UN’s Agen-
da21 and 2030 are strategies
that are intended to restrain and
contain large populations of
people in urban areas, cen-
tralize their food, water and air
supplies, control all information
inputs in terms of news and
entertainment, control all earn-
ing methods and vaccinate the
global population to the greatest
extent possible. This will leave
large swathes of land under
government control, paving the
way for global government or
one world government. These
plans are being put to the test
using the Corona Virus situation
to effectively gauge the world’s
responses.
The freedom to move around
Afrika was curtailed by the fake
colonial era borders, so it’s a
very short hop to imprisonment
in cities, with the emptying out
of rural areas, especially in
these countries where policy
is put into effect using mostly
brute force and other Draconian
measures. This is because –
mentally and spiritually - people
have already accepted abnor-
mal restrictions as par for the
course. As I write this, I’m sitting
on the top floor of an apartment
block, in a rapidly developing
peri-urban area where apart-
ment blocks and office blocks
