WORDS AND ART PICKED BY THE FEATURED ARTIST
Edward Echwalu from Road Safety In Africa
"Africa needs more roads that follow rules. Roads are culture, dignity, and most importantly guide to our goals. Every day we go through these roads to accomplish our goals. Most of us achieve our goals like how we want them, but some DON’T! To decrease this goal interference we need rules that put us in order. We might have rules now that float into the road, but they don’t have the infrastructure to shine properly. When these things get fixed, people’s goals become better, cultures mature and souls will be rescued. I hope Africa pays more attention to people who are losing their goals instead of constructing all these buildings that benefit capitalism. The chaos might make Africa look “beautiful”, but this beauty has stuck for a while. It hasn’t changed at all. Let’s build a new look for Africa with proper goal guiders." - Eyorr
