        @calestous That kind of construction work should be assigned to an agency similar to the US Peace Corps. That's what Africa should have.

        @MauriceJOduor The US Peace Corps doesn't build infrastructure. Did you mean the Army Corps of Engineers?

        @MauriceJOduor The US Peace Corps are for international deployment so you need a different model.
