Our Contienent by Ghanaian in Lagos

The perspective of this work is based on how Africa is blessed with minerals and other natural resources but suffering.   Greedy and Irresponsible leaders are leading our future to a big grave. Illegal mining or non-respectful ways of mining is having a very harmful impact in our continent and making daily life even more difficult to the population.    Deforestation, pollution, floods, are directly impacting the environment; land, water and air are polluted causing diseases, death of all form of life.  Humans, animals and plants are at risks each single day.     With this piece I wish to draw the attention of our leaders to reflect and make the change needed to protect our lands and water bodies and secure a long-term sustainability for a bright future.   I hope that all the knowledge we have been blessed with, will open our eyes and help us to protect our beautiful environment (continent) rather than causing harm.
