QuickFact!

Africa is a continent with a total of 54 countries. The entire population of Africa is about 1.34 billion. The United States of America is a country (not a continent) consisting of 50 States (just as we have 36 states in Nigeria). Among the 50 States in the US, is the state of California. The population of the state of California is about 39.5 million which is 0.03% of the population of Africa. The total GDP of all the countries in Africa is about 2.6 trillion dollars. The total GDP of the state of California is about 3.09 trillion dollars. The state of California GDP alone is greater than the GDP of the whole of Africa. Maybe it is because California have Silicon Valley. Most high tech companies such as facebook, google, oracle, eBay, Intel, Cisco, Apple, PayPal, HP, Microsoft and so on are located in Silicon Valley in California. The revenue from Silicon Valley alone no be here oooo. In naija, we have computer village too sha.
Tech drives the world.
Nigeria will continue to borrow and suffers economic kwashiorkor if in this time, our focus is on cows and grazing route.

Awake o' sleeping giant of Africa.
It is high time we look inward and bring out the ingenuity in our youth to build African nations that will take its rightful place among comity of nations.
