The Redemption of Africa Kwaku Asare

Since the writing and distribution of my first book The Grooming of an African Monarch, I have received accolades and compliments in manner I have never experienced in my life. Even those who did not agree with the message of the book told me it was hard for them to put it down while they were reading. It feels as if I have won the Nobel Peace Prize and the Nobel Prize for Literature in the same year. However I did receive some criticisms. Many found the book too self-focused. Some even called it: self-serving. One of the biggest criticisms was the word "I" was used too many times. My reward has been received by my first book which solidified my position as an African and indeed a world leader. So why not stop there and walk into the sunset? The African people have not received the full benefits of this new era which has dawned. The media and African leaders are not telling truth and are beating around the bush. We the people of Africa must understand what's happening if we are to use it to our advantage.
