    Nairobi has attracted global giants such as IBM, Google and Microsoft because it has the universities, infrastructure and dynamism that make it a natural leader in the region. But that is where the rosy tale ends, because, in contrast, the complete lack of funding for the Kenya National Theatre, for instance by the government means the local arts scene is a shell of the powerhouse it once was.

    A recent report revealed that Africa’s share of the global creative economy is less than 1% and that the export of creative goods in Africa increased by only 0.6% between 2002 and 2010. However, these figures are due to change, as creative industries are gaining increased recognition as key ingredients in fuelling Africa’s economic growth, as illustrated by the numerous international summits and publications devoted to the expansion of the cultural industries in Africa, such as the African Creative Economy Conference, and the UN’s regular Creative Economy Reports, respectively.

    Africa, a continent endowed with immense natural and human resources as well as great cultural, ecological and economic diversity, remains underdeveloped. Most African nations suffer from military dictatorships, corruption, civil unrest and war, underdevelopment and deep poverty. The majority of the countries classified by the UN as least developed are in Africa. Numerous development strategies have failed to yield the expected results. Although some believe that the continent is doomed to perpetual poverty and economic slavery, Africa has immense potential.

    There is no future for anyone who depends on the system so that they may excel. You need to create your own reality… build a vision, create the road to it and systems that will see you through then help as many as you can to use your road map. Depending on the non-existent is a recipe for failure.

    Its all relies on our education system. The system which was constructed by the colonialist only to churn out clerks and skilled workers for the colonial plantations and colonial governments. Thats the root cause I suppose.
    As Africans we took that as the actual meaning of education because the educated would be employed by the settlers and the colonial government. Mind you, people were forced to work via the hut and poll tax(read KRA use of Huduma namba to acquire more taxes on persons age 18 and above)
    Our current education systems are still founded on that concept of producing workers and not acting as a social levler that can support our imagination into creativity and innovation. Our administration is also a victim of this miseducation and thats why Our politicians are not imaginative and all they are capable of selling our resources and rampant plunder of public funds instead of being innovative to build an economy that can support the public’s innovative culture and creativity. If we can’t tackle this problem of education then our creative future will remain dull just like today.

      Maybe the education system is to blame but what do you say of all the people who have made it using the same system you post towards?
