Two Cents for Africa" is a genuine call to all Africans to wake out of slumber and be competitive/productive. A very inspiring book indeed. The book is a factual socio-economic and political prescription to Africa's dependence on "manna from heaven" and an ardent reminder that the only solution to Africa's backwardness, is hard work, pragmatism and a real conscience. This book cuts across the African spectrum and makes the best symbolic journey into the dark heart of Africa's mind… It tells the truth. This is a must buy for all Africans. Jean Claud J Kilo &&&&& Two Cents for Africa is a scathing satire on the excesses of contemporary Africa, which instead of taking the exhilarating dance of independence and the chance to self determinism to enchanted vistas reminiscent of George Orwell's "golden future time', choose to stagnate in a benumbing animalism of disquieting "jujucracies" characterized by bad governance, sycophancy, kleptomania, self-interest, archaic educational programs, obsolete/ obstructive legal systems, suicidal produce marketing strategies and a citizenry languishing in the thorns full grips of abject poverty. Clifford Acha &&&&& As a social economist, Fri Bime does not ignore the aspects of culture which according to her have been destroyed and need amending. She is of the opinion that culture helps us to identify ourselves and our Africanness is a value that makes us distinctive and that is why she proposes that our fragmented continental map should be redrawn because its segmentation by the colonial master was arbitrary Dr. David Toh Kusi, &&&&& We have the talents, we have the well-schooled, we have some know-how. So why should our market price be so minimal? Our knowledge… is clouded by our inability for us to usher ourselves out of the cocoon. We have virtually refused to become butterflies, to take our flight to freedom. And this is Beatrice Bime's assertion for making us appear so cheap and almost worthless. Two cents! ... Beatrice Bime prescribes hard work, understanding and the will not to be taken for granted. Peter Essoka
