In the first of a special series from Marrakech in Morocco, Zeinab Badawi talks to two of Africa's high achieving young people - Nigerian musician Seun Kuti, youngest son of the legendary afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, and Ethiopian entrepreneur, Sara Menker, CEO of a hi-tech agri-business Gro Ventures, in discussion with veteran South African Cabinet Minister, Trevor Manuel, who spent his own youth as a political activist, fighting apartheid. With Africa as the world's youngest continent, high rates of unemployment have left many young Africans frustrated and despondent. Zeinab Badawi asks if there is now a generation gap that's leaving an old elite in place and a younger generation who feel impoverished and marginalised.
