AFRICA MATTERS

This is a site where anyone with interest in Africa can write news,views,stories and other items to promote the"Africa Matters' theme.
It is a project of http://www.africanhomestay.net/ that allows internet users to submit materials for publication at anytime from anywhere in or out of Africa.
I will screen materials submitted but will not censor or re-write them. It is my hope the site will focus on the many cases of struggles against odds to survive in the face of despair,the hospitality of the African people and development opportunities around the continent.
Bearing in mind that most of the international media report on African wars,famine,disease,poverty,despair,hopelessness and dejection;I ask my users to tell stories of achievement and hope-stories of triumph and victory of African spirit.
Basically,this site will provide news,information and analysis for everyone interested in Africa.
This is a clear forum for Africans to tell their story and uplift images of Africa because Africa Matters,isn't it?
Proudly African,
