Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31846, member: 636"] Three African leaders just came back from Ethiopia with big smiles. They saw amazing changes in Addis Ababa that made them want the same things for their countries. These ministers from Gambia, Burundi, and Mali went there for a youth meeting. They spent time looking at new buildings and projects all around the city. Bakary Badjie from Gambia noticed huge differences since his last visit ten years ago. He really liked the new meeting center where business people can hold events. He thinks his country can learn a lot from how Ethiopia works with private companies. The Gambian minister wants to bring these ideas home to help young people there. Gervais Abayeho from Burundi was excited about what he saw. He talked about the large size of the convention center and how many people it could hold. He had never seen any African country care about youth as much as Ethiopia does, which inspired him deeply. His plan includes sending Burundian youth to Ethiopia for training programs. The Mali minister, Abdoul Kassim, thought the fast building work in Addis Ababa showed what other African nations could do. He believes young people must help fix problems because they make up most of the population. All the new ideas he saw across different areas impressed him greatly. He wants to copy these lessons when he returns to Mali. Their trip shows how important it is for African countries to share good ideas. When they talk and work together, they can find better ways to include young people in strengthening their nations. These leaders left Ethiopia with fresh thoughts about helping the next generation build a better Africa for everyone. [/QUOTE]
