What Is Happening In Africa

I was listening to Bruno Mars "It will rain" and i fell in love with the song... I put it on replay and it played all day at the office. Just that song. I googled "Bruno Mars" and it appeared that he won no Grammy last night, Adele...
Adele won in all six nominated categories. I thought that was he debut so i googled Adele. I chose wikipedia and started reading about Adele..
I realised she had been there all along making hits and setting records since 2006. I didn't know about that till today. As I was reading, i realized she was born 1988, same year as i was born, she is just a few months older than I am. She is so famous that even the wind whispers her name in every surrounding and her voice kept saying " this is me and no one else".
Who from Africa has attained such fame and status..?
Facebook C.E.O was very young, Bill Gates was very young, who in Africa is making it at that age? When we hear of a rich man in Africa, it is either he is "Gold rich", "Oil rich" or "Corrupt rich" by politics. 
 Are we saying there are no entrepreneurs in Africa? What happened to our business side of life...
We are not able to market our culture and have paved way for some people who do not know how to even locate their left from right insult our way of life...
I walk about in Town and see "VLISCO" advertise a cloth and I feel like I have to see the tailor for a shirt. Our GTP is only made expensive with no value added to it.
What happened to our business side of life?
It may not come as a surprise if a whole human being could be sold into slavery for a piece of mirror...
It is sad... It is sad... It is sad
Apostle Kwadwo Safo is trying his best but our politicians go and watch, talk and it all ends there...
Our so called rich men have their monies locked up in other countries and are not investing in their own countries...
Our new breed of musicians can only sing songs that will be enjoyed in a month and the next month, nobody would want to hear that song at a party or any occassion...
I wonder how many of our artistes rehearse their stage performances before stepping on stage...
When shall we....?
