The miserable lot that characterizes the daily life of African youth will be the focus of this book, in which we will touch on the biggest challenges that constitute obstacles preventing them from discovering their talents, exploiting them to build their best future, which would be beneficial to their community, country, Africa and the wider globe. Like all young people in other parts and continents of the world, Africa's youth face enormous difficulties that affect them and hinder their development and prosperity.For decades before our generation, the same situations persisted, making life difficult for the young people of those bygone eras. History tells us of their lives, which differ slightly from today's only in chronological terms, but the situations remain virtually identical.On the basis of this similarity, and based on his observations, the author has been able to identify what he considers to be the causes of the unfortunate fate of these young people. He has set out these facts in detail, and hopes that the majority of his readers will be convinced by his discovery.
