Quotes

 “We heard a number of discouraging words like “Africans don’t like partnering so this isn’t going to work” but we are going to change that. We will put in the work and prove that we can partner together and do great things together as Africans!” – Sidonie Niba

“We’re trying to incorporate people from every single African country – north, south, east, and west. [These events will be a place] where you get to meet people that you may be trying to connect with, empower one another, and leave better than you came.” – Anyoh Fombad

“The fundamental problem is that we don’t partner and work together. What stops us Africans from coming together and partnering? This is the very essence of this organization. Let’s talk, support one another, and build together.” – Tafor Niba
