My brains is burning on How, when ,who, where and what?

I have a small answer for Who?: It is me, you and him/her all in Africa! We have the potential since we have very few challenges to keep us awake - only if we value what we naturally have.:-):-)

We should think out of the Box but We should acknowledge what we have in our Box. To begin with, we have equity: land is the biggest assert. Next is Talent ! We naturally have it all. 
No one will tell you how to make ur household better than Theirs!

Lets control the Content which is rich of knowkedge...
