"If we want to build Africa, we cannot build Africa with people who are disconnected from the realities. [...] These realities will only be changed by us accepting that we need to work hard. We need to change our mentality. We need to focus on innovation and creative thinking. We need to focus on acting, [and] on people achieving results, physical results, not social media results," she urged.
"My mission is sustainable empowerment. I know the United Nations talks about sustainable development. I said [that] there is no sustainable development without sustainable empowerment, because it is empowerment that leads to development. [...] Sustainable empowerment is for the youth, of course, because they are the future [...]," she underscored.
"They [young Africans] have crazy ideas; we pack their ideas; just put it together and help them navigate it in a positive way," she concluded.
