People of Africa

Dear People of Africa

Through UBUNTU 2025, we now have a way of insuring that our countries resources are equally shared among all the people, that finance reaches all, that we are all put at work, that housing, savings, education and healthcare are accessible to all and more, so that we can play the important role that is ours, of motors of true development. Now that we also all agree, the UN ahead, of role of micro finance in improving people lives and the center role that people can play in the development of developing countries through small village based enterprises, which are at the foundation of UBUNTU2025, it therefore only remains to insure that we all and each do the small part that is required from us in order to create a prosperous Africa.

The call by the UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan, for small loans to millions of people with unmet borrowing needs at the symposium of experts in Geneva on the 10th of November 2005 is clear. He was speaking in these terms:

.

Wars in Africa, sicknesses and other abuses are there because poor people are weak in all aspects of the term; their voices do not count. People of Africa, today is your independence day and you are going to take back your power and your voice, you are going to wake up and brake the circle of dependence to systems that do not deliver because they have failed to put you at the right place, which is at the center of the development process, and they have also failed to focus on your empowerment to achieve true development.

From now on, when someone asks you for your vote or detains already a parcel of power, ask him/her where does he/she stand with regards to the people's program. How much money is he/she going to provide or help provide for loans to families and individuals? How many schools from your program to provide free education and free nutrition to learners will he/she help build? Etc. Meaning that you want to know how important will he/she be for you, for the people, so that we can start counting to know how far we are to the total.
