Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.
A world that works for everyone, is a world that opportunities are created to all people and given a chance to exercise their full potential, it is time that parents give the young people opportunities to decided their own destiny and wishes, like in one time we were forced to concentrate on books, it doesn’t matter whether, you do not like or you are not good in school but you will be forced to go through it, some people have excelled in sports and made it big others in music and are making the life they wanted, so the earlier we give chance to the young ones to decided their lives the better.
What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?
The most pressing problem in the world is insecurity, the world invest a lot of money for security in which if the security was not an issue the money invested for it, it could develop the world and assist those who are poor in different continent, like the Haiti case, all the nations send their troop to keep peace in different places, using force to evict, the law offenders, if we had peace, all the resources used for keeping peace could be used in different things to develop the nation.
We need to understand that when people use force to settle conflict it is a temporary solution rather than knowing the grass root of the problem.
How do you feel these problems could best be solved?
This problem can be solved by educating people on how to be peaceful and create good environment for peace to prevail, we need to know the grass root of the problem, that is what can keep constant peace and life long decision, when we know the value of peace then we cannot afford to have conflict, conflict should be solved amicably and with open minded, without using weapons and crude explosive that cause life, and life is precious no one should take it for granted, and we should get a better way to iron the differences.
