  Why African young people should be empowered to build African Solutions. By Muhumuza Faizo King | on 15th. SEPT. 2021 A view of an African Technologist. Africa is the youngest and fastest-growing continent in the world. By 2030, there will be 375 million young people in the job market in Africa. Within a few decades, this demographic boom will push Africa’s workforce to more than a billion people, the largest in the world. Let’s face it, the growing population will bring new challenges and new opportunities. A pan – African like me will not inhabit in the current or future challenges, I will focus on the opportunities and I hope this article enthuses the reader to ruminate in the same direction like the writer. Forces of 21 st century demand will require all of us to grow into ground-breaking thinkers who creatively put working solutions that are innovated and fashioned in Africa on board . Self-belief! Self-belief! This is the most important character in this day and age

By Muhumuza Faizo King, A few years ago, I was honored to join more than 90 young African Leaders from fourteen East and Central African Countries. All of them were more different than they were the same. The most significant similarity lied in their desire for change and zeal to stand tall in the face of adversity to lead the change they desire. They did all this with an impeccable level of excellence and an unmatched commitment to their work. To mention but a few; in his early twenties, Ahmed Ali a qualified Pharmacist left his profession because he believed he would lead more change while teaching and mentoring upcoming African stars at the University at Khartoum in Sudan. For Victor Kabegu change meant setting up a great cassava farm and adding value by making starch out of the cassava. For Isaac Rwomushana change meant excelling as a junior lecturer at Makerere University in the quest for becoming a highly knowledgeable international Educationist. For Aidah Bukubuz

My Africa, My Europe. Africa you are my home. Europe you are my other home. The globe is our real home, absolutely! the giant home. I have given my all to you Africa. But my all is not enough. My all may not save you Africa. Africa your glitches are sophisticated ones, Your public management systems are not active, Your children are not positive, Your security and freedom so sensitive, Your own leaders merely reactive, sometimes volatile. But Africa you are my home. I have given you my all. But my all is not enough. My all alone may not save you Africa. I have gotten a partner for you Africa. The partner is Europe, my other home. Europe is a triumphant home. Technology and innovation is rising and never falling. Ooh! what a home I have, separated by the sea. A union between Europe and Africa will save the day. Working together, winning together, saving the planet together. Is the goal. Europe bring your technology and success stor

Why Cloud Computing is now the 'Thing'. A view of an African Technologist. By Muhumuza Faizo King. In the last week of November last year, we commenced a Microsoft organized Cloud computing colloquium in Machakos County - Kenya with the clear objective of spreading the now unavoidable computing gospel ‘Cloud-Computing’ to East and Central Africa. Technical brains from Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, Ethiopia and my home country Uganda graced the event with their presence and it was such a pronounced lifetime technical experience that amplified my braveness to support the revolutionary cloud computing technology I once disapproved, according to the late Egyptian diplomat Boutras Ghali,  “It is a fool who does not change his mind”. In this day and age, it would be pessimistic to dissociate one ‘self from technological innovation. There are inexhaustible reasons that describe why I now agree that indeed Cloud Computing is the ‘thing’. Imagine you have servers in an orga

PRESIDENT TRUMP: LIFE LESSONS ESPECIALLY FOR YOUNG AFRICAN LEADERS. Written by, Muhumuza Faizo King . 8 th / November / 2016 is the historical day on which Americans voted for the 45 th President of arguably the strongest nation in the world (USA). Openness, Authenticity, Fairness and Integrity was exhibited to the completest save for inevitable human errors. After a really tough campaign between a highly experienced politician and the first female candidate from one of America’s major political parties Hillary Clinton, and a rich man Donald Trump who had never served in government or military although over the years he has been a highly connected global citizen. From China to Israel, Trump has always been recognised. Not just as a pronounced business man but also as a man who likes to lead and influence especially through his state of the art books and reality Television programs. In this compassionate article, I will concentrate on the three most important life l
