AFRICAN DIASPORANS ARE NOT THE SOLUTION

AFRICAN DIASPORANS ARE NOT THE SOLUTION

Diasporan Africans
are not the solution
to African problems
but may be interested
in African problems
to enrich their pockets.

How do you explain
a professor of chemical engineering
heading a Covid-19 task force
in a state with world-class physicians and
a physician heading a chemical engineering
task force in the same state?

Yea, there is more money in
Covid-19 palliatives than in
formulating a chemical engineering
plan for the state ensuring that
round pegs continue to be
inserted in square holes.

The gap between the round peg
and the square hole dubbed
the Diaspora Gap ensures that
money continues to leak into
the pocket of the Diasporan incumbent
and the development of Africa is stalled.
