AFRICA IS BLEEDING

 By Obianuju Lilian Ikegbune, Lagos


Africa they say is bleeding, but I say Africa has found her Voice!
Black Lives they say matters, I say Black Lives matter Every where Internationally and Locally!
May our Unity abound as our Creativity abounds.
The Generation to prove the power of online tools in galvanising offline activism is born!
It is not Just a hashtag, it is our collective voices, it is awareness! It is a movement! It is our Change! African Rising! 
World Watch Out! AFRICA IS REINVENTING

FEATURED - HANDMAID IN AFRICA:ANKARA CRAFT

I like to celebrate people who inspire others; I like to celebrate Africa, I like to celebrate young entrepreneurs like myself. The last time I was at the 2013 July edition of the LPM, I met an interesting young woman who fascinated me with her works by breaking away from the norm and doing something different. It’s the CEO Hand Maid in Africa, let’s meet her. Nene Aderohunmu is a young woman who is into stationeries such as pencil cups, books, sticky pads, diary, and household decorative like wall frames, picture frames, and jewelry box all made with Ankara and hand crafted by her.
