The head of the Universal Peace Federation - East Africa, Dr. Hasmukh Dawda,
is one of the great men of peace around the world. He has a vision to bring

community, village and family would live in peace with one another.

work with a man such as Dr. Dawda. He works cross-culturally and with interfaith
organizations to teach people how to get along and build peaceful
relationships. At the end of the day we all live side-by-side in our communities, as
different ethnic groups and with varying faiths, so it’s important that we learn to
live in peace and harmony with each other for the benefit of our communities,
businesses and families. Dr. Dawda is one of those exceptional men leading the
world in peace keeping. It is a pleasure to work with him.”

internationally because he has helped people at an international level. Universal

DR. CLYDE RIVERS, PIONEER OF HONOR FOR THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA



The Vice President of Kenya, H.E. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka, spoke of Dr. Clyde Rivers as a phenomenon. The phenomenon he was speaking of was his representation of the “Culture of Honor.”

Dr. Rivers said, “As I discovered, the quality of leadership on the Continent of Africa, that I found have never received honor, I was shocked. Many African leaders have done great things to help their people and have never received recognition for their great leadership. Basically all that has been revealed about Africa is the negative reports and poor examples of leadership. God has put a call in my heart to show the world the greatness of Africa and we are working to build a ‘Culture of Honor’ in Africa.”

Rivers goes on to say, “In the United States we have systems in place that recognize top achievers. In Africa we are developing a system of honor to recognize top achievers. I feel blessed to have honored on the Continent of Africa, a total of to date, twelve Presidents, Vice Presidents, First Ladies and high profile government officials, honorable men and women that stand for good and have exemplified great leadership. Because Africa will be a major force in the economics of the world and all eyes will turn to her, it is my heart for the great leaders in Africa to understand the power of establishing a ‘Culture of Honor.’ Because of this, our Ministry of Honor is working hard to build a system of honor on the great Continent of Africa.”

This is the New Africa!
