Kevin Njabo : How we can stop Africa's scientific brain drain


Kevin Njabo at TEDGlobal 2017
How we can stop Africa's scientific brain drain (transcript)
Summary
I think that this problem leads to what the meaning of country I was born is, why I work, and how the country I was born should become in the near future. Even in Japan where a good education can be received, many people think that they want to live overseas, many people already live overseas, and among them think that they don't want to come back to Japan.
I don't mean that they don't think about their country Japan but they have to work for the country they were born with sacrificing.
Just a country will be vulnerable but it doesn't allow that only you don't think about the country you was born. Thinking and developing our own country lead to contributing to the world.

In Africa, the country the speaker was born didn't have better education systems. People study abroad and they are better scientists, but they don't come back even in their continent Africa. The speaker is working on a new education system that African people can receive the high-quality education, and they can solve their countries' problems their own hands in Africa.
He came back the country he was born and he creates it so other people can come back. It stops Africa's scientific brain drain.
