The Co-founder of the foundation, Samba Baithily spoke out and said “We have the sun and innovative technologies to bring electricity to homes and communities. We now need to consolidate African expertise,”. Akon along with the co founders Samba Baithily and Thione Niag will open the institute in Bamako and provide engineers and business individuals the ability to harness solar power in the areas of need.
“We expect the Africans who graduate from this center to devise new, innovative, technical solutions,” Niang said. “With this Academy, we can capitalize on Akon Lighting Africa and go further.”
Statistics have shown that 70 percent of Africans are under the age of 35. Akon Lighting Africa is also aiming to provide thousands of Jobs to those seeking employment to feed there families! #IFWT!!!
See, this is the side of what all artists need brought to our attention. We get all crazy when a teenager sneaks into an Akon concert and gets danced on. Then her parents want to get mad and try to sue him cause they go from getting angry at their daughter for going to greed of who her daughter got on stage with. They thought that they could twist it into money.
If they were good parents, they wouldn’t have went this route. They obviously suck in the parenting of their child. When you see Akon give back to the community, especially providing 600 million Africans electricity, this is what is needed shown. Akon, just like Michael is a great person inside.
The stories about them shown as a child molester is ridiculous. Stories get created for money, don’t everyone get that? I do thankfully and when I see things like this, it inspires me to do the same. Here is a question I like to ask though, do those who create bad stories about these artists give back to the community?
I like to see what they are all about. Lets create some bad publicity about them. Oh wait, none of us would care huh? We wouldnt because they aren’t stars like Akon is.
