Is Shared Prosperity the Solution To Stem the Tide of Illegal Migration In the Global North?

Is Shared Prosperity the Solution To Stem the Tide of Illegal Migration In the Global North?

Dear critical reader, the question that wise and aspirational young Africans and their counterparts in the global north ought to ponder is: Can shared prosperity become the long-term permanent solution to help stem the tide of wave upon wave of illegal migrants invading the global north?

With the greatest respect, the West's far-right politicians now on the ascendency in the global north would be wise to make Nicholas Frimpong-Manso's contribution to brilliantly executed shared-prosperity win-win projects beneficial to Ghana and Hungary, as well as the EU, the subject of a case study.

This could help focus their minds on their nations' demographics of private-sector innovative entrepreneurs with African heritage creating value-enhancing GDP growth beneficial to both people and planet in Africa and the EU. One hopes above all, that for the sake of humanity in the AI era, it might help them gravitate to a worldview more akin to that of the wise Italian prime minister, Ms. Giorgia Meloni.

Finally, one's prayer is that the global north's far-right politicians will study and adopt Giorgia Meloni's unique viewpoint on the art and science of creatively funding transformative shared-prosperity infrastructure projects across Africa. They will find that it offers effective solutions to enable them stem the tide of illegal migrants trying to find non-existent greener pastures in the global north from the global south.

Shared-prosperity works and rocks! Cool.
