I had a honor to be invited by my brother Sussex Bright to attend the 5th anniversary of Focus Africa Series in Abuja. It was a moment to interact with great friends in Nigeria including Hon MP Magnus Abe, Mr Sinari and Various Kings of Nigeria. It was a time to celebrate success of resilient, commitment and dedication of a young African man who rise from grass to grace.

I look forward to the upcoming meeting in UK where African experts are expected to engage the world on governance and the rule of law. Africa is an old continent rich with history of good governance and the rule of law for ages. This continent practiced democracy in ancient times through their chiefs, Kings and headmen. They had strong structures of governance, territorial control and economic independent. The modern world ought to build on these legacies and have African practice democracy in the context of African values and cultures.

I thank Mr. Sussex and the team for steering on this important organization and create a platform to African stories tellers.
