Tale of the Ethiopian Eunuch and why Africa must discover self-love

Doubtless, God loves Africa. But does Africa love herself? If Africa understood the love that God has for us, something would be different about our self-perception. Our confidence about our place in the world would not be the same. Our transcontinental leadership would indicate cooperation with the will of the grand Love. If we understood God's love for us, we would not be as wasteful as we are, or as wasted as we let ourselves be. We would not desert ourselves as we cling to the slippery backs of self-seeking aliens. That we peddle our contents and our heritage at shockingly cheap and embarrassing concessions tells us that we are either ignorant or careless about our pricelessness.
