Wangari Njuguna reports on a powerful lesson being taught to Africa’s next generation. In the Boys Mentorship Programme, young boys are told: “A weak man runs away from problems, admiring other countries and seeking citizenship abroad. But a strong man stays and learns to solve them.”
This timely message comes after a viral documentary exposed the modern-day slavery of Africans in Arab countries — where thousands are trafficked and exploited after being deceived with promises of jobs.
From brain drain in health and tech, to young workers trapped abroad, this story asks a tough question: will Africa keep running, or will it stay and solve its own problems?
