In related news, The General Overseer of Action Chapel International Ministry, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams has said he dreams of an Africa where no son and daughter of the continent will queue for visas for greener pastures abroad.
According to Duncan-Williams, he is optimistic that Africa will develop to a point where citizens can achieve their dreams and aspirations without travelling abroad.
The man of God called for a sustained commitment to Africa’s growth and transformation.
Speaking at the 4th Inter-Parliamentary Conference on Family, Sovereignty and Values on June 3, 2026, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams stated, “I have a dream that in my lifetime, Africa will be so developed by principles that work for us, not by principles that work for others, but by principles that work for us as we look at our culture and as individual sovereign countries”.
That, no son and no daughter of the continent of Africa will queue for visas to go to other nations for greener pastures.
But our sons and our daughters will work and labour in our own land and our countries and achieve their dreams and goals, fulfil their desires and destiny, succeed and prosper within their own countries and their own borders and not go to any other country to seek greener pastures.
I have a dream that our young men and women will not be scattered around the nation world, but Africa will rise to the occasion to fulfil its God-given destiny and mandate. This is a dream I look forward to seeing, praying for”.
