Diversity and inclusion are blessings for Mother Africa - so let's embrace them

The yearning for freedom is innate in all humans, regardless of race, gender and class. Amongst Africa's younger generations, today, it is creating melting-pot-energy, empowering thriving private-sector start-ups, of the continent's most innovative green entrepreneurs.

Above all, it will also fuel an unstoppable movement for social diversity, and inclusion, in hidebound societies across sub-Saharan Africa - unleashing a wave of boundless-energy bedrocking creativity and innovation that will power the continent to achieve its destiny as a global power, and force for good, in the world, in the process.

Incidentally, we are witnessing the first stirrings of it in Ghana, as victimised women become bolder, in outing powerful men who engage in sexual misconduct, on social media platforms. It will eventually bring down many such men, and end that evil-menace. No question.

As it happens, that selfsame boldness-of-spirit, is driving the many successful ecommerce start-ups led by female entrepreneurs, booming across our homeland Ghana. Watch this space. Diversity and inclusion are blessings for Mother Africa, so let's embrace them.
