Will Our Children (Still) Be Able to Read?

Will Our Children (Still) Be Able to Read?

To abolish illiteracy and maintain a dignified life

The world is adrift in the tides of hunger and desolation. It isn't easy to think about education, or anything else when your children cannot eat. And yet, the sharp attack on education during this past decade forces us to consider the future that young people will inherit.

M.I Abaga | 'Ashes' (Aluu4)

UbuntuFM Africa | M.I Abaga | 'Ashes' (Aluu4)

Nothing would be worse than for death to mean nothing

The Aluu 4 was a necklace lynching that involved four young men, Ugonna Obuzor, Toku Lloyd, Chiadika Biringa, and Tekena Elkanah, all students of the University of Port Harcourt. They were all lynched after they were falsely accused of theft in Aluu, a community in Ikwerre local government area, Rivers State, Nigeria on 5 October 2012. M.I. Abaga wrote Ashes in response to this tragedy.

'Ubuntu' told by Pres. Nelson Mandela

UbuntuFM Africa | President Nelson Mandela

One of the reasons UbuntuFM was established

A traveler through a country would stop at a village and he didn't have to ask for food or for water. Once he stops, the people give him food, entertain him. That is one aspect of Ubuntu, but it will have various aspects. Ubuntu does not mean that people should not enrich themselves. The question therefore is: Are you going to do so in order to enable the community around you to be able to improve? - Pres. Nelson Mandela

Dr. Mamphela Ramphele on “must-dos” for Africa

It has taken a tiny organism, SARS-CoV-2, to get even the most conservative traditionalists to accept that state institutions are essential to mobilizing national resources to protect and promote the common good. The fragilities of neoliberal economics have been laid bare.

I Am A Woman

Suthukazi Arosi | I Am A Woman - So What?

I AM A WOMAN, So what?

When I'm quiet, millions of things run through my mind. When I stare at you, I wonder why I love you so much, in spite of being taken for granted. I am like salt. My presence is never remembered, but my absence makes all things tasteless
