This is an interesting topic about Yam and Brain Health.

For centuries, Yam has been at the heart of African diets—nourishing generations and shaping culture. But today, many Africans are told to abandon yam in favor of imported foods like wheat, rice, and semolina. Is yam really dangerous? Or is the truth being hidden from us?

In this video, we uncover:
The false myths surrounding yam and diabetes
Why yam is actually healthier than many imported grains
The right way to cook yam to preserve its nutrients
The forgotten wisdom of our ancestors about food and health

The problem is not yam. The problem is how we cook it.
Knowledge is power!

Msingi Afrika Magazine Issue 40.

The government of Gabon recently announced the intention to cut scholarships to the West. This makes sense when you realize that while African universities are struggling with underfunding. the continent pours $20–30 billion each year into sending its youth abroad for education. It doesn’t need Harvard research to know that such funds could transform local institutions.

Yet much of this investment is wasted: many graduates never return home, draining Africa of skills, leadership, and real growth.

“No scholarships for this year. It’s too expensive. And those who leave don’t come back. They earn their degrees and stay abroad where the pay is better. Why should we fund education for people who won’t contribute to Gabon?” President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema announced.

Outsourcing Africa’s brainpower makes no sense when we can build world-class universities, invest in skill acquisition for our young people, build healthcare facilities run by Africans, or create serious research partnerships. Why should our African countries prefer to send talent overseas, and then complain that things are not working in Africa? We need to engage in home-grown value addition in every sector of our society.

In this issue, we feature the nation of Eritrea - Create Value, Build Africa.

Today is my birthday, and I am most grateful to the Almighty for the gift of life and good health.

As part of the celebration, I have released a new single later today, titled 'Africa Arise.'

The truth remains that the rise of Africa depends on all Africans globally. About 1.6 billion people who make up the global African population cannot continue to think and live less than they are supposed to. It is time we put our differences aside and rise to the task of reimagining and rebirthing the Africa that we want to see. This song is a call to all Africans to wake up and remember what it means to be Africans.

So, while we have prayed and hoped in faith regarding Africa, we must also now put in the work where needed, for the Africa we want to manifest.

At some point in our lives, we all must return home. But this home is not just the house we retreat to after a long day at work. No—home is origin. It is memory. It is purpose. It is the soul of who we are.

To go home is to journey back to the heartbeat of African communities, to the time when history was not written in ink, but lived in songs, stories, knowledge, feasting, organic lifestyle, and the nurturing of life.

We come from those who sowed hope, who nurtured the land and each other, so that all might eat, and live, and remember. And so, we must return, not just to the land, But to the truth of who we have always been.
