Walking Towards Progress of 1.3 Billion Thriving Africans.

“Last call for alcohol, last call for alcohol, last call for alcohol.” An announcement I heard many a time in my youth. Typically night clubs, bars, lounges, pubs closed at 1 or 2am and it was common place for patrons to hear last call and we knew it’s time to wind down alcohol intake by […]
