Good news!!!!

We are the last of the broke Africans.

Believe it or not: by the end of this century, every fourth person in the world will be an African. It means that one out of every four humans will be an African.

By the middle of this century—a mere 32 years away—Nigeria will be one of the five most populous nations in the world. And Africa will contribute the largest proportions to the middle and upper middle class in the world.

Nollywood will overtake Hollywood as the numero uno film industry.

And the Lagos Music Award will be where it’s at.

Africa is where to invest now.

You really can’t lose this bet if you buy Africa now.

Why?

Because we are the last of the broke Africans.

NB

Africa will not charge a huge interest when we lend Europe money for development in 2060

“Wole Soyinka wants to have a word with Rufus. Tell him to come as soon as possible. Kongi travels out of the country next week,” was the simple message that I got back from Kole Omotosho.

Omotosho was the head of the Dramatic Art Department, University of Ife. He sent a driver to me to collect a manuscript, “Marx and Mask,” written by the brilliant Ghanaian writer, Ayi Kwei Armah.

Soyinka regularly received manuscripts from several writers, and after making copies, he would distribute the manuscripts among his circle of intellectuals who met at least once a week to read and discuss the manuscripts.

This birthday gift came well after my birthday. It has my name emblazoned on it. As I wore it, I recalled the conversation with Iya Oyo and Baba Oyo that evening they explained the meaning of my name, Moyo, which literally means “I rejoice.” It is part of a longer name Moyòsọ́rẹtíolúwápèsèfúnmi.
