With the world at a race to embrace various new technological advancements such as robotics, advanced weapons systems, surveillance, food production, e.t.c, I feel that African states are way behind in all these. Normally, everyone would attribute this to poor leadership, autocracy, corruption and backwardness but today I want to give a totally different view of all this. I feel that we Africans are just content with the miserable lives we are leading. There are no intrinsic desire to better ourselves at much. No institutions that desire to better the lives of its citizens at grassroot level.
