For The Discerning Reader In Love With Diversity Of Culture

Once a journalist asked Chinua Achebe, one of Africa's greatest and internationally known writers, the reason he hasn't written any book about Europe and America. Achebe responded by saying that a lot has already been written about those two continents.

Yes, there are thousands of European and American writers, but only a few write about Africa. The reason my articles and books reflect on my culture as an African, that living in Europe for many years.

I know that there are thousands of readers interested in the non-fiction genre of books; thus, one of my goals is to share my non-fiction books through the diversity of culture. My utterly compelling collections are destined to capture the reader's attention and interest, to learn about other people's culture and heritage.

My books are in the categories of travel, immigration, health, and entertainment. The personal account of the stories reflects on the places I visited in Africa, such as Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone, Togo, Benin, and The Gambia. And in Europe, it's about life in Barcelona, Spain, Aarhus, Denmark, England, Amsterdam, Holland, Rome, Italy, and Antwerp, Belgium.

The African stories act like a guide to European and American tourists. The books will teach you how to avoid being a victim of thieves, armed robbers, and immigration crooks, who prey on nationals and foreigners, while the European stories teach Africans how to survive in Europe, without papers and crime.

Many ask the reason some of my books have sad titles. Each title reflects on the story, but the books have their humorous part too. Explore the humane, captivating, and emotional account of Joel Savage's books, which will keep you turning the pages late into the night. 

Wishing everyone, including readers, authors, and writers, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

The Heart Has No Colour, No Country, No Religion, No Sex

Andrea: Her wise comment inspired me to write this article

I do write a lot, but I have to admit that some of my writings were created from the comments of readers or my followers. As writers or bloggers, when we read comments on articles, how seriously do we take them, ponder over them to see their usefulness, significance, and effect?

Many argue that it’s not good to comment, but I say that It’s good to comment on articles, but if you don’t have anything significant to say, please shut your mouth, because your comment can give you the respect you deserve, and the same comment can put you into a very big trouble, because of the bad things you said.

Believe me, some comments are worth more than silver and gold. It can change one’s life and the way you think, especially if you don’t have any love in your heart for someone. 

There are many problems, and almost all these problems were caused by man. Pride, superiority, and racism are some of the problems tearing our society apart today, yet no one wants to be called a racist.

Recently, I posted an article captioned “Who Says There Is No Happiness Or Love In Africa?” The fact that Africa is a continent that has suffered a lot of wars, ethnic conflicts, slavery, and man-made diseases, leads many to think that they don’t have a love for each other. 

Frankly speaking, a poor African can easily share his food with a friend, than a rich man in a developed country.

This particular article I wrote didn’t generate much comment, but the only comment I had was awesome and inspiring. It touched my soul to read it over and over, allowing it to germinate in me, to add it to the little I have and share it with others.

According to blogger Andrea, who runs this Italian blog.

Each person has a heart, and in each heart there is Love.

So every one of us has love in his/her heart.

The heart has no colour, no Country, no religion, no sex.

So Love has no colour, no Country, no religion, no sex.

Too many times, unfortunately, people forget to be human and have a heart…

I hope everyone agrees with me that this quotation or comment is awesome and carries wisdom. Thank you, Andrea.

How I Met Professor Johan Van Dongen: The Dutch Scientist Who Revealed Aids And Ebola Were Medical Crimes Against Africa

Dutch scientist and  Johan Van Dongen

Since I share every article I write on social media platforms, I have got several readers, writers, and authors interested in my articles, but I had no idea that there is a Dutch scientist who reads every article I share on LinkedIn’s social platform.

Just as a man’s desire and character show who he is, my articles revealed my identity to Professor Johan Van Dongen. He realized that not only that I fearless but also an honest and sincere writer, who is ready to die, far as truth is concerned.

Since we have something in common and have that fearless character, he perceived that I was the right person to collaborate with to warn African leaders about the misuse of Africans, as Guinea pigs, to test drugs manufactured in Europe and America.

The conscience holds many individuals back from committing a crime, and as a scientist, he has the power to join the empire of deceitful scientists to plague Africans with diseases, but he chose to remain neutral.  His research, dating back as far as 1972, revealed that AIDS and Ebola were laboratory-engineered or man-made viruses.

Set to reveal those medical crimes to the world, he first published his books in his native language, Dutch, in Holland. The books were successful, but the Dutch government felt he was a betrayer or whistleblower; thus, they embarked to make his life miserable. He was fired as a lecturer at the university and faced many legal actions in court.

Out of the blue, Professor Dongen introduced himself to me on LinkedIn’s social platform. I secretly started digging into the background of this man, since I don’t trust anybody in a country called Belgium, unless the members of the Jehovah's Witnesses, because I worship with them every week, even though I’m not yet a full member (Not baptized).

Professor Dongen had already contacted a few Africans, including journalists, on those medical crime issues, to help disseminate the news and warnings to African leaders, but he was totally disappointed because of fear. Yes! Africans pull knives and cut their brothers' throats in wars and ethnic conflicts, but believe me, many are very cowardly, indeed.

One can witness the cowardliness of an African in Europe when an African is murdered or manhandled by the police. They will group somewhere to discuss the demonstration. When the time of the demonstration comes, you will never see those you sat down with a couple of hours ago, leaving one or two people at the demonstration ground to be a scapegoat.

I don’t blame them, the food is very delicious, so nobody wants to miss their favorite dish. Fortunately, my scripture reminds me that: “Man shall not live by bread alone, so many times I read the Bible, to feed my life spiritually, to be able to stand any force or wickedness that comes my way.

This is the reason why the police in Holland forgot to feed me the whole day, while behind bars for six days, I didn’t demonstrate. I was able to sleep peacefully without food for the next day. In the morning, when I was served breakfast in my tiny cell, I asked the police officer: “Why I wasn’t given any food the whole day yesterday till this morning?”

My question changed his countenance, and he thought I was joking. “What did you just say?” He asked. I repeated what I said. Confused and downhearted, he went and did his investigations and found out that I was speaking the truth. He apologized and said to me, “You were too quiet, so we didn’t know there was someone in there.”

The mistake they made touched them emotionally to the extent that they gave my passport back to me and asked me to go home. Believe me, the Dutch police don’t free an illegal immigrant. This sounds like a tale, but the police in Amsterdam can confirm this story; above all, this interesting story can be read in my third book: Overseas Chronicle-The Rome And Amsterdam Experience.

After reading much about Professor Johan, satisfied and knew that he is a genuine person, I responded to his invitation. He posted his two books, one captioned “Aids De Grootste Misdaad In De Medische Geschiedenis”- Translated ‘Aids The Greatest Crime in Medical History.’

As our friendship grew stronger, I realized the man’s clean heart, conscience, and love for mankind. I wasn’t surprised to read that he invented an artificial rat to perform his experiments, to prevent animal cruelty. This exceptionally good conscience is hard to find among some of the wolf-scientists in sheep’s clothing.

It wasn’t long before we decided to translate his books into English. Translating the Netherlands into English and all the scientific theory works proved to be a very tough job. We did our best. Whether the translation was good or not, our message is to let the world, including Africa, know that Aids and Ebola were indeed medical crimes against Africa.

African leaders have disappointed us more than the ignorant Africans who claim Aids and Ebola are cursed by God. The fear of dealing with Aids and the Ebola crisis alone, when they confront Europe and America,   haunts them; they chose to remain silent. But the truth is, that silence is seen by Europe and America as a lack of intelligence and cowardliness.

YVONNE MASERUMULE: HER WORLD OF FANTASY, REALITY AND INSPIRATION FROM NELSON MANDELA

Yvonne Mahlape


Imagine a world without books, poets, authors, and writers. How is it going to be? Many writers, scientists, and people from all walks of life continue to change the world with their wisdom and philosophical ideas.


Technology is improving daily, gradually enhancing education and our environment, giving us hope for a better world in the future.

One aspiring young writer who is gradually making her presence felt in the world of literature is Yvonne Mahlape Maserumule. Born and raised in Phokoane, Limpopo, she currently lives in Acornhoek, Mpumalanga Province in South Africa.

At a very tender age, she has always been fascinated by magazines and various works of literature.  The English language rates as one of her best subjects in High School, where she especially fell in love with the literary work of Shakespeare, Stephen King, Danielle Steel, and many other authors of high caliber. 

During her high school years, her outstanding creative abilities were quickly noticed, and in her final academic year in 1992, her short story, SCHOOL DAYS, was published in Drum Magazine.

Her then Headmaster at St Mark's College (Jane Furse, South Africa), Mr. Peter Anderson, was a great fan of her writing abilities and encouraged her to consider a career that would enable her to unveil and promulgate her God-given writing talent. 

She's currently developing a blog titled: ‘My world of fantasy and reality, in which she acknowledges, among others, the late former President of South Africa, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, who has been her inspiration. 

Yvonne also blogs on issues that are of common human interest, such as SUBSTANCE ABUSE and its impact on households. On 19th June 2014, Dr. Yomi Garnett broadcast a Radio Promo celebrating the creative abilities of this young lady live from the studios of VOICE AMERICA in Phoenix, Arizona. 

She has recently established a strong relationship with creative people in the field of writing, such as Jeannie Faulkner Barber, Marta, and Merajver Kurlat, who have been tremendously supportive of her writing career in its infant stage.

One of Yvonne's aspirations is to launch a Christian blog, through which she hopes to share the love of Christ with her current and future contacts. 

She is also working on a collection of short stories that she hopes to publish very soon, either in print or online. Apart from her writing career, she enjoys collaborations and is involved in various volunteering projects that involve working with and aiding the impoverished, the homeless, and the sick. 

One of her greatest passions is working in children's ministries and teaching young ones about the love of Christ.  She is therefore hoping to enroll in courses related to Social Work in the near future, to enable her to establish a career in this field.
