The epicentre of the African culture is its community orientation, and a foundation deeply etched in religion and social-cultural ethos. In order to achieve the expected success and entrench a functional template for steady development, the spirit of Ubuntu should guide all that we do. Ubuntu, a Nguni-Bantu term, means 'I am because you are' and it codifies the essential human virtues of empathy and humanity.
This book provides fundamental answers to major issues contending with the accelerated development of the African states. It also offers a way of engaging collective action and functional leadership to drive continental development. Critical issues associated with Africans are challenges attributed to identity and religion, need for power of collaboration for the collective good, and tackling the malignant leadership challenges.
Exemplifying the spirit of Ubuntu as spelt out in this book could offer profound solutions. Ubuntu is proffered as a means of fixing our damaged polity through sacrifice, selfless service and love. It is what may yet give Africans a new vista of hope, especially in the face of stunted continental growth and threatening issues such as the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change and the looming unrest that the ever-increasing number of impoverished people on the continent may trigger.
