The African Green Revolution Forum meeting kicked off yesterday at the United Nations Complex in Gigiri, Nairobi. Several African heads of State including President Uhuru Kenyatta and philanthropists Strive Masiyiwa, Gayle Smith and Bill Gates will be in attendance.
No doubt, food security is a major problem for the continent, and this forms the highlight of discussions at the conference. Agricultural experts will discuss and formulate policies that will help Africa move away from its "beggar status" in food.
