You could never change the paradigm using old tools – Rocky Dawuni

Ghanaian Music Icon, Rocky Dawuni has reiterated on the the GTV Breakfast Show that, African Leaders cannot change their economic status by using old ways.

The Ghanaian Reggae Icon in an interview stated that, African Leaders have been able to move their countries to new directions, but they have done so with old ways.

“You could never change the paradigm using old tools and you can never as they say he who feeds you controls you. For  a long time, I think that African leadership and African political establishment  have always come with a redbrick of should I say taking the country in New directions, but when it comes to implementing, we still goe to the old ways”, he said.

Rocky Dawuni urged African leaders to be more focused on the future and not the present.

“And every country thinking that development is about just the immediate where you go and take a lot of loans to make everybody feel OK for a moment and then in the long run the coming generations end up being the ones who have to deal with that, the burden is not OK. But here we are, a Continent with one of the most arable lands, with a youth population that is one of the most vibrant in the whole world. So we already have when you think of economic theory, we already have two of the most important resources that we need to invest to create  a dynamic new economy”, he stated.
