Uniting To Re-Brand Africa: Face2face Africa Set To Launch F2FA



Earlier this month, Face2face Africa announced the birth ofF2FA, a vibrant multi-niche global magazine with the theme of Re-branding Africa.

F2FA will serve as the new image and voice of Africa. Covering everything from politics and development, to culture, fashion, entertainment, diaspora and lifestyle, the magazine will give an introspection of what it’s like to be a modern day African, as well as explore the relationship between the continent, diaspora Africans, and global citizens. Already dubbed by insiders as “the magazine that will break barriers,” F2FA is poised to make a positive impact globally.

Acknowledging that the mission of Re-branding Africa requires the collective efforts and unification of all believers, Face2face Africa is working with devoted organizations around the world to help facilitate and bring awareness to the promise within the continent.

Africa Foundation, Jewish Heart for Africa, There is no Limit, Africa.com, The Network Journal,Africa Style Daily, NYU Stern in Africa, and Cocody Productions are some of the organizations coming together as partners for the launching of F2FA Magazine. These outstanding organizations all share the common goal of uniting and empowering African communities around the world.

“By having these organizations join us, we are acknowledging that it is impossible to fulfill the task of Re-branding Africa alone. Each person, organization and community must do their part by not feeding into the negative pre-conceived notions. We are happy and proud to provide a balanced platform where Africa’s history, present and future can be discussed,” said Face2face Africa’s Marketing Director, Rita Kusi.

This is a record of all terrorist attacks in America and in countries with American interests and on American Embassies and citizens abroad. Osama bin Laden did not create the demons of terrorism. He is only one of the most diabolical and destructive of them all. The devil is the author of Terrorism in his capacity as the Son of Perdition and the father of chaos. It is very important to clarify these issues for the benefit of those who are ignorant and naive and have been jumping to erroneous conclusions. Terrorist Attacks (within the United States or against Americans abroad) 1920: septa. 16, New York City: TNT bomb planted in unattended horse-drawn wagon exploded on Wall Street opposite House of Morgan , killing 35 people and injuring hundreds more.

A Commentary Direct Talk and Psychological Accessibility to the Boko Haram Group Is worth the Trial in Nigeria It is now obvious that the nation is now fully plagued by terrorism which is so widespread and monumental that it is hard to unravel. At a time when the Nigerian air is filled with the festivities of Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, which in a supposed way should involve the slaughter sheep and cattle, and not the near-sacrifice of a son, as in Abraham’s case, but the reverse is the case.Human slaughter is in our face on a daily basis in Nigeria due to the Boko Haram wrath. Violence in Nigeria, a country of more than 150 million with an almost equal split between the Christian south and the Muslim north is affecting public safety and national security. Nothing appears to be stopping the inflammable and untamed-able torment, fear and worry across the country. There appears to be a legitimate state of distress nationally, and the cause of the state of distress is growing d...
