Leaders read.

It has been clear to me for a while, and now i feel obligated to let you know that its not an option for leaders to read, its a lifestyle. If there is anyone following you, you need to know something that they dont. Acommon saying goes that if you want to hide anything from an African, put it in a book, but guess what, they are wrong now. Africans are the medicine for our beatiful continent, and unless we interact with great thinkers, through their books, there is not much we can do for Africa. Our brothers who have gone before us have fascinating reads; think Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe, Ngugi wa Thiong'o.... list is endless. Recently i read Duncan Ndegwas 'In the Footsteps ...' and that is a really mind wakening book.
Now get up and grab a book!
