Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

To me a smile is not worth a good smile unless if reflected on the face of our brothers. Only by love towards one another and collective problem solving that we will achieve a better world for everyone. A world free of poverty, a world divorce of lawlessness, a world of peace, a world of freedom, a world that I and everyone out there will be proud of.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

To ascertain and understand proper the major problems facing the world today, its incumbent we divert our minds to all parts of the world as the problems differs. While some of the problems are universal like terrorism, others are more prevalent to some parts of the world (i.e. poverty). While some countries are trying to acquire weapons of mass destruction, others are trying to save their economy from breakdown. On a general context however, some among the major problems facing the world are:<\/span><\/p>\n

Terrorism: today the wings of terrorism are flying across the world. Different terrorist groups are everyday emerging and posing a great threat to the peace of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Weapons of mass destruction: one major threat to the peace of the world is the unveiling of weapons of mass destruction. The acquisition of which has become a pointer of a country\u2019s power. This leaves the less developed countries under a state of fear and reducing them to puppets of the stronger ones.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poverty: for some time now, poverty has eaten into the lives of so many populations. Poverty is the number one resultant of other global problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bad leadership: bad leadership over the past decades has thrown so many nations into the pitch. Being one factor that eats deep into the root of a nations well being and development, bad leadership open ways to corruption, abuse of law and procedure and poor decision making.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you feel these problems could be solved?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to address a problem, there is always a need to trace its root. Having a look at all the problems, one can safely conclude that they are resultant effect of a particular factor or the other. If we look at the act of terrorism, most terrorist acts are born out of perceived injustice. What may appear just to someone might appear unjust to another. That is why movements to encourage different cultures to appreciate each other and tying the bonds of relationship between nations based on mutual understanding will produce positive result in addressing the problems. Today there are a lot of activities by various bodies trying to unify the world and address most of it problems i.e. United Nations, World Bank, Commonwealth, African Union, European Union etc I believe active participation and involvement of individuals and organizations in the activities of the above bodies will indeed make an impact.<\/span><\/p>\n

The above also can only be perfected if there are good leaders and representatives. On this we can assume good leadership is the yardstick for solving most global problems. Within a lot of people lies individuals with good leadership potentiality which only needs to be unlock by encouraging and promoting seminars, lectures, studies and active participation and involvement of individuals especially the youths in policy and decision making.<\/span><\/p>\n
