Imagining a Digital Kenya

Imagine with me a digital Kenya, a Kenya who is connected to the world and whose youth are sought for their knowledge and skills. A Kenya where there is law and order, timed stoplights, and transparent government accounting. I can imagine a different Kenya, a country we would be be proud to live in. If we can imagine it, we can achieve it, but it would require no less than a redesign of the country as we know it.

There is no excuse for poverty. In a world of plenty no one should starve.  Voices of Africa and other development innovators can eliminate poverty in Sub Saharan Africa through information empowerment driven by technology.  To achieve this we must work together in solidarity for the benefit of all humanity. The power to connect the world as one village is here. It is the time.
