NOTHING'S WRONG WITH AFRICA!
US economist Jeffery Sachs challenged the West to put the mirror to its face at the UN Food Systems Pre-Summit in 2021.
When the imperialist powers were not colonising Africans who had systems of governance in place, they were plundering Africa's precious resources, assassinating political figures and, fuelling wars, stifling the continent's ability to conduct its affairs.
Sachs said Africans continue to be exploited and denied their rights recognised under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations in 1948. He mentioned Belgium's brutal occupation that k*lled more than 10 million Congolese and the Belgian/British/US-led assassination of the Democratic Republic of the Congo's first democratically elected leader, Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba (1925-61).
The bigger problem is not African corruption, but rather Western imperialism. Let us know your thoughts below.

Tips to get more protein
The best way to combat a protein deficiency? Work on getting more protein in your meals. Romito offers up the following advice:
Include protein at every meal. Romito doesn’t recommend trying to cram all your protein into one meal. Instead, she says it’s best to split it up throughout the day. “If you get protein at every meal, it makes it easier to hit your total by the end of the day.”

Most people think success is about adding more.
More projects. More contacts. More noise.
In reality, the breakthroughs often come from subtraction.
Removing the one offer that drains you.
Declining the meeting that adds no value.
Letting go of the client who doesn’t respect your work.
If you feel stuck, ask yourself:
What can I remove to make everything else work better?

In 2007, ‘locavore’ – a person who only eats food grown or produced within a 100-mile (161km) radius – was the Oxford Word of the Year. Now, 15 years later, University of Sydney researchers urge it to trend once more . They have found that 19 percent of global food system greenhouse gas emissions are caused by transportation.
This is up to seven times higher than previously estimated, and far exceeds the transport emissions of other commodities. For example, transport accounts for only seven percent of industry and utilities emissions.
