I have to hurry to go back home. I am getting impatient waiting for my fellow Chief Executive Officers to make their comments. We are discussing the current realities of the continent. Our continent has gone through a lot of changes and by sheer determination, grit, hard work and courage we have managed to beat all odds. In fact, our exchange rate is currently one of the best in the world – 1 Fikan is exchanging at 70 Dollars, 75 Euro and 70 Yuan. And this is the story I am burning to tell my grandchildren. The last time they all visited, we had a great time together. I can still remember their faces as I shared with them some of the lessons that I have learnt in life. This is why I cannot wait to get home and truthfully, this conference is wasting my time!
Today I will share with them something that is very personal to me. I do not know how they will take it. I hope that they will still consider me as their grandmother and not judge me so harshly.
