Africa, set prices for your commodities
Based on imported commodities

An automobile is a commodity
A computer is a commodity

A radio is a commodity
A CT Scan is a commodity

Africa, how about commodity for commodity?
One ton of cocoa for a Mercedes Benz E350

One kilogram of coltan for a CT Scan
One gallon of palm oil for a Dell computer

Let Mercedes compete with Maserati
Let ASUS compete with Apple

Africa, stop undervaluing your commodities
Africa, you can elevate your standard of living

Elevate your standard of living by valuing your
Commodities in commodities and not currency

Currency can be manipulated but
Commodities cannot be manipulated

Fortunately, palm oil trees do not grow on
Mars nor in Paris, Beijing, Tokyo, Moscow, or New York
