    Africa on the Precipice (ATP) provides commentary on global geopolitics, economics, and world history, using African interests as a lens to give a different perspective on world events. The book specifically explores how and why Africa has not fared well in the ‘battle of civilizations’ (or global geopolitics) from the 15th century until present times. ATP also presents a bold blueprint to make African countries dominant on the international stage through an ideology originated by the author called ‘Afro-Hegemonism’.  
    ATP sounds the alarm for African countries that they must undergo transformational socioeconomic restructuring by 2030. The consequence of not doing so, will see Africans continue to be a global underclass in a geopolitical landscape that is quickly evolving. Moreover, the ultimate price for not embracing revolutionary change now, could see Africans permanently lose their sovereignty, treasure, and freedom in the 21st century.

    Stuck in the relentless cycle of working long hours and bringing home paychecks that were spent before they cleared the bank, I knew something had to change. A mentor’s advice—“If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you’ll work every day for the rest of your life”—ignited a transformation in my life. That revelation led me to real estate, a proven path to both financial independence and time freedom. With determination and a clear vision, I learned how to break free from the daily grind and build a life where my income worked for me, not the other way around. 
    This book shares my journey, lessons learned, and a step-by-step guide to achieving passive income through real estate investing.

Whether you’re starting with limited resources or simply seeking financial freedom, these ten proven steps will help you build a steady income stream, avoid costly mistakes, and take control of your financial future. 
    It’s no mystery that 9 out of 10 of the world's wealthiest investors have their hands in real estate. They weren’t born instant millionaires, nor did they acquire their portfolio of properties overnight. Many of them began their journey with little to nothing, and the best part is that many of you can too! Ordinary everyday folks, without a fancy education, without a truckload of money and without a ton of skill are changing their financial future for the better. They’ve learned to harness the power of passive income through rental properties, and with a little grit and determination you can do the same. Let’s unlock the boundless potential of real estate and turn your dreams of early retirement and creating wealth into reality.
