Dear editor,

As we direct all our efforts towards modernization and improving livelihoods, we should ponder upon how to be creative and innovative. This will empower individuals to direct their own destinies.

Creativity and innovativeness, can be harnessed through first of all appreciating our contexts, this motivates us to work towards improving them.

Another way of cultivating creativity is trying out new things, thinking big and having an open mind to learn new things.

It’s high time we Africans stopped being recipients of things that have their roots, from our diversity.
