Bio and Why I'm Writing This:
I'm a junior in college majoring in International Studies. I've recently become interested in the problems of development and underdevelopment facing African countries. After college I would like to pursue a doctorate in this area of study and contribute what I can to the world's understanding of these issues.

This is my way of both trying to understand what's currently going on, as well as possibly help those interested find resources to help themselves try to understand. I hope you enjoy it.

Oh, and by the way, the name of the blog means "See you tomorrow" in Hausa. And, hopefully I will!.
