The Future of Tomorrow

The is considered like the future of the Africa of tomorrow. In Africa, especially in the Democratic Republic of Congo, this becomes just a simple slogan for people in power. How come the youth we don't empower today may become the future of our countries? This slogan has become a tool to manipulate young people when it comes to save the interests of those people in power.
In Africa, youth are used as militias by the authorities and this unemployed youth can only be submissive to anyone with a proposal for money in whatever activity.
Today some African governments are not pumping enough funds in education to equip and empower what the African authorities would like to be the future of the Africa of tomorrow as they are singing it through their chorus: 'youth are the future of tomorrow'. For me, tomorrow depends on what we can do today. Youth to be the future of tomorrow, they must learn it today not only by words but through city concret facts. If young people are not prepared through a proper and formal education, it means that African will be transmitted to the hands of barbarians.
Young people are being corrupted everyday with this chorus when in reality nothing is being done so that this youth can be what they are singing today.
People in power are sending their children abroad where they are getting a good edition which will guarantee their future while poor's children are in the mining and others being used ad milutias. We can imagine the kind of future we will be left to these youth which are the future of Africa.
At a tender age, youth are already exposed to corruption which becomes an infection in some countries in the African continent.
If really the African continent would like that the youth can be the future of tomorrow, they must start by investing in these young people instead of just singing that the youth are the future of tomorrow. African authorities must stop using youth for their own interests and teach this youth good actions.
