BEST VIEWS OF AFRICA- Congo River Basin - Great Rift Valley - Nile River System:

The magnificent morphology of Africa ceases not to amaze the Global village. Aren't Africans outgoing? Think of the numerous diverse social-cultural set ups. You must have heard of the Maasai of Kenya ,Isn't it ? Shaka Zulu of South Africa ;the home to the FATHER of Democracy and statesmanship ; Rip Hon. Nelson Madiba Mandela. What of this naturally endowed phenomenon: 

Congo River Basin

The Congo River Basin of central Africa dominates the landscape of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and much of neighboring Congo. In addition, it stretches into Angola, Cameroon, the Central African Republic and Zambia. The fertile basin is about 1,400,000 sq. miles (3,600,000 sq. km) in size and contains almost 20% of the world's rain forest. The Congo River is the second longest river in Africa, and its network of rivers, tributaries and streams help link the people and cities of the interior.

Great Rift Valley:

A dramatic depression on the earth's surface,approximately 4,000 miles (6,400 km) in length, extends from the Red Sea area near Jordan in the Middle East, south to the African country of Mozambique. 

In essence, it's a series of geological faults caused by huge volcanic eruptions centuries back, that subsequently created what we now call the Ethiopian Highlands, and a series of perpendicular cliffs, mountain ridges, rugged valleys and very deep lakes along it's entire length. Many of Africa's highest mountains front the Rift Valley, including Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya and Mount Margherita.

Nile River System:

Have you ever asked yourself , " what is the longest river in the world?" (flows north), rising from the highlands of south-eastern Africa and running about 4,160 miles (6,693 km) in length, to then drain in the Mediterranean Sea. In simple terms it's a series of dams, rapids, streams, swamps, tributaries and waterfalls. Numerous (major) rivers comprise the overall system, including the Albert Nile, Blue Nile, Victoria Nile and White Nile.

Could these still be another unique indicator of Africa being the cradle land of humanity??

HOW AFRICA IS THE NEXT BIG THING

This was a continent dabbed numerous dehumanizing nicknames "Africa is a dark continent!!"You couldn't browse past a single article minus such sentiments.
Perhaps no one should dare awaken a sleeping Tiger.Its now evident that Africa is threateningly taking over the posh outlook of those destinies that were rather in Old opaque history acclaimed as the rightful habitats of Man.
With the emergence of Big cities,towns ,economies in Africa all these owed to the relentless effort of the Africans "Honey Bees spirit" of never conferring to the blind retrogression by the Godly built states (400BC).
They are now frog jumping into Africa's states men offices hustling for possible temporary homes for their ever bulging unmanageable population.
Our God given Oil well have been converted into battle fields,Besides Oil and gas , we are drilling fresh blood.Look at Boko Haram in Nigeria and you'll sigh.

"Is Ebola a conspiracy or a natural population regulating mechanism engineered by Nature???"Why should our people suffer,"Did God put us on this world to earn credit at the expense of others?..Aaaaah...Nooo!!!
The African spirit will never die as we the true custodians watch.
Various Geographical case studies on Africa reveals a massive vault wealth.
Only Africa by Africans capacity development initiatives will rehabilitate our well endowed continent.
For this matter the great Natural resources we harbor be it the Sahara which shall never be a bad omen but an intentional economic tap Africa has been blessed with.
