Learning. Listening. Going to where it happens.
I have recently returned from a trip to South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana and Kenya. After so many stories (and piles of Nigerian scamspam in my inbox), I was most anxious and curious about Nigeria. Lagos is an amazing city full of amazing people, doing amazing things. People were kind, generous, concerned, entrepreneuerial, interested, interesting, clever, innovative, helpful, ambitious, street-wise, library-wise, wise; and very happy, that I have made the small effort of visiting, seeing and listening. Nowhere in Africa has the gap between my expectations and what I found when I got there as big as in Nigeria.
1 out of every 6 Africans is a Nigerian. Start to understand, where understanding has an impact.
