"Africa is a great continent, one of the hopes of the world. We can be a better one – a continent of greater equality, justice, and opportunity. We can build a prosperous economy and a society that shares its benefits more fairly. We can look after our seniors. We can offer better futures for our children. We can do our part to make all this possible. We can restore our good name in the world. We can do all of these things because we can come and work together and working for change can actually bring about change. Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done.
My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world."
