Olé added,
@olez @calestous What about the millions of educated Africans languishing in joblessness? Knowledge alone is not enough w/o applicability.
@OderoGogni You are confusing classroom education with useful knowledge. Knowing to recite Plato doesn't make one a cobbler. @Olez
@calestous @olez It as an insult to assume that millions of educated qualified jobless Africans have useless knowledge as you call it
@OderoGogni You can reason and support your argument without hiding behind victimization. What is your point? @Olez
@calestous @olez Africa is still resource rich (agric, etc) and value addition still has a role to play, as does knowledge.
@OderoGogni At least read the article and see what tariff escalation does to the dogma of beneficiation @Olez
