The next session turned from mindset to mechanics, what's actually blocking action, and what it will take to move. Mr. Claver Gatete @claverGatete named the gap plainly: political will, from heads of state and ordinary people alike. Ms. Yvonne Makolo @YvonneMakolo, CEO of RwandAir, made the case for aviation as necessity, not luxury. Africa holds 1.4bn people but only 2% of global air traffic. SAATM has been signed, but 38 countries in and nearly 20 years on, Gatete noted, we're still signing agreements instead of implementing them. Her call: open Africa's skies, properly. Allen Kagina @Allen_Kagina took the tax question back to pre-colonial Africa, where village contributions funded roads and landing sites because people saw the benefit. Colonialism turned contribution into extraction, and that wound never fully healed. Her challenge to the room: destigmatise tax by making it visibly serve the people again. Rotimi Olawale @rotexonline argued policy must catch up to where young Africans already are, building informal economies, and that the real unlock is capital in young hands to connect and create wealth. Gugulethu Siso brought it to street level: a trader moving goods from Lagos to Mombasa often has to route payment through the US via PayPal, because it's faster and cheaper than bank to bank within Africa itself, proof of how far regulation lags behind actual commerce. Amb. Marie Antoinette Rose Quatre @APRM_MarieRose closed with a sobering reset: Africa risks being left behind by AI while still failing to capture basic birth records, with 40% of African children out of school. Her point was simple and hard to argue with, fix the fundamentals, education, waste collection, basic data, before reaching for the frontier. A room of LéO Fellows listened closely, aware that mindset reset means little without the machinery to execute it. #AfricaMindsetReset #MetaAfricanism #AfricanLeadership
