However, a quick scroll on social media shows there are joyful tidings too in pretty much all aspects of life.
If you’ve been in a miserable mood lately, wondering what sort of apocalypse we are all heading to, here’s some good news to brighten up your day.No, not the nebulous concept of the dark continent of Africa, not to worry, but it feels good to write ‘made in Africa.’ The first-ever smartphone manufacturing plant opened in Kigali last wek. The plant was launched by the Mara Group and will manufacture two smartphones, the Mara X and Mara Z.
The phones will be built on Android operating systems and are meant to compete with the likes of Samsung and Tecno—the current frontrunners of the African smartphone market.More good news from Rwanda who’s long been a beacon of hope for female representation in politics not just for Africa but for the world.
