Former governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, has said African leaders must ensure Africans were not made casualties in the crisis currently affecting the globe.

”Africa has been badly hit by turbulence emanating from outside its boundaries, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2007/2008 economic crisis, and the global climate change. ”Without a doubt, turbulence in the international system has been refracted into Africa to produce a season of anomalies across our continent.

”Yet while opportunities may be available to be tapped into in the context of ongoing realignments in the international system, they are not always given, nor do they last forever.”Acting speedily, purposively, and with single minded determination is an imperative which must be embraced with boldness and vision by the governments and peoples of Africa.”

”If you check what is going on in the Middle East, I think what is necessary now is the need for negotiation, for reconciliation, and this is exactly what Nelson Mandela did after the Apathathe collapse. Rather than engaging in danger, engaging in unnecessary, endless war between the white and the black, Mandela sought reconciliation.
