News Highlights:

  • Dr. Evans Woherem’s “Building a New Africa” calls for a united, self-reliant continent rooted in visionary leadership and sustainable development.
  • The book offers a bold roadmap for Africa’s transformation, drawing from its rich history and proposing a Pan-African model for the future.

Dr. Evans Woherem, a renowned scholar and thought leader, has unveiled his latest book, “Building a New Africa,” urging Africans worldwide to rethink the continent’s future and unite in shaping a new chapter of progress, self-reliance, and shared prosperity, reports Digital TimesNG.

A timely and thought-provoking publication that offers more than just a history lesson; Building a New Africa not only presents a roadmap for reclaiming Africa’s greatness and unlocking its vast potential, but explores the continent’s rich past, its present challenges, and a bold, actionable vision for transformation.

“This book doesn’t just touch on the past of Africa,” Woherem declares, “but it makes us understand Africa’s potential and offers a vision for a future where Africa can thrive and stand proudly alongside the rest of the world.”

In Building a New Africa, Dr. Woherem draws from history to remind readers of the continent’s glorious civilizations—Egypt, Kush, Mali, Songhai, Oyo, Benin, and Great Zimbabwe, among others—emphasizing Africa’s foundational role in the story of humanity.

He then examines how centuries of slavery and colonialism disrupted this trajectory, leaving long-lasting impacts on political, economic, and social systems.

Despite gaining independence, the book notes that many African nations remain trapped in neo-colonial systems, burdened by political instability, economic stagnation, and underdevelopment. “The question we need to ask ourselves is: Where did the rain start beating us? How did Africa lose its greatness?” Woherem asks.

But Building a New Africa is far from a lament. It is a clarion call for solutions, providing concrete ideas and practical pathways forward. Central to the book’s thesis is the urgent need for visionary leadership, the kind that can unite people, inspire change, and drive inclusive growth.

It also advocates for a political and economic framework rooted in industrialization, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development. The book outlines strategies for mobilizing resources, building institutions, and investing in sectors that can generate jobs and wealth.

One of the most compelling ideas presented is the proposal of a Pan-African model of development—a cooperative, borderless approach that leverages the collective strength of African nations. This model, according to the author, is essential to overcoming shared challenges and building resilience.

Dr. Woherem pushes readers to look ahead and ask: What will Africa look like in 50 years if bold steps are taken today? “This book isn’t just for academics, policymakers, or experts. It’s for all of us—Africans, and anyone who believes in Africa’s potential,” he writes.

Building a New Africa is more than a book—it’s a rallying cry. It invites students, professionals, entrepreneurs, and everyday citizens to join in the conversation and be part of the change. In an era where the narrative about Africa is often marked by pessimism, Dr. Woherem offers a hopeful and empowering alternative.

As the continent stands at a crossroads, Building a New Africa urges all who care about its future to begin imagining, planning, and acting, today.

The public is warmly invited to get a copy of Building a New Africa and engage in this vital conversation. The journey to a renewed, empowered, and united Africa begins with informed minds and inspired hearts.
