If power of speech, eloquence or having the way with words, regardless of the sincerity of meaning is all what it takes to develop a people, I believe Africa would’ve been the most industrialised and economically developed continent, but unfortunately bare rhetoric is not good enough...and so long as eloquence remains empty of action or isn’t let off the hook of pretence, deceit and hypocrisy, the desire for progress “will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained.” For instance, what do you expect if a keynote speaker on stigmatisation goes home to forbid his kids from associating with a certain group of innocent kids, because of a certain failing of their parents; if that activist whos seemingly devoted to the cause of getting drop-out kids back into school has two of such kids in use on his farm; if a generous donor sets up a charitable thing supposedly aimed at fighting a certain social ill, ends up feeling bad that the venture wasnt able to turn a profit? What change do you expect if that preacher that preaches about kindness is so conceited that his conduct cannot inspire others to practice kindness; if the family planning educator tells the wife how impious it is to control the interval between births; if a welfare worker that teaches other men to behave well towards their wives and children is a bully and a wife beater? What difference will it make if a volunteer for a certain social cause has “what personal benefit is in it for him” singing in the back of his head; if in his heart, Omar Touray that seems to be on the side of modesty and modest clothing, can sit at his spot saying how exceptionally attractive, well-defined and desirable he finds Miss Gorgeous tight ass and perky boobs...the list is endless, I just hope well someday be afforded the wise mind to overstand and live out...I just hope! o.O
