The novel opens with Vatican intrigue between liberal and conservative Cardinals leading to the unlikely selection of an Indonesian Pope. Seizing the opportunity, the new pope uses Ex-Cathedra (papal infallibility) to declare poverty an immoral human condition. Deciding to lead by example, the pope takes the provocative step of selling the Vatican treasures, to fund a long-term project to build a strong African middle-class society. This project is estimated to take twelve to fifteen years to complete. This novel covers the first two years of the pope's African project.
Project leaders during the first two-year period understand if Africa is to be successful in building a strong middle-class society a number of events must first take place.
African social order must change; Africans must feel safe in their homes and community.
The African political structure must be restructured to focus on serving the needs of Africans. Africa's health care system needs a major overhaul.
Africa must have an intra-continental highway, connected to four deep seaports, for the distribution of agricultural products to a global market.
Africa must have dependable electricity that services all homes and businesses.
Africa's tropical savannas' land, which contains 63% of the worlds arable farmland, must be restructured to allow for optimal farming while at the same time protecting native wildlife.
The pope's project, Build Africa Together, will be responsible for implementing these basic goals, which will eventually allow Africans to build a strong African middle-class society.
