Movement of New African Leaders - Paperback

by Seddoh Bokor (Author)

The African continent is rich, yet Africans are poor. What accounts for this situation? Among the myriad factors, this book emphasizes inadequate preparation and inexperience of African leaders across economic, governance, and administrative spheres.

It examines historical, political, administrative, social, and economic factors and how they combined in the deprivation of Africa. It looks at the effects of the colonial antecedent and how African leaders have not made the needed turnaround since independence.

The book pinpoints the cardinal leadership qualities of the next generation of African leaders to attain an improved quality of life for the people and make Africa a key player in the world's political and economic affairs. It further looks at the hazards of multi-party democracy, suggesting the modernization of the original African political system as a complementary governance tool in the manifestation of the African personality.
