Prominent businessman Ken Sharpe has congratulated Elon Musk on his appoint as secretary for the Department Of Government Efficiency.

Taking to X, Sharpe pleaded with Musk not to forget Africa as he embarks on his new role.

“I hope and pray that in his new role in charge of making the US Government leaner and more effective, he will not forget about us here in Africa by paying it forward to his homeland and sharing the efficiency formula he masters”, he wrote.

Two months ago Ken had the privilege of meeting Elon in New York at the Global Citizens Awards Gala dinner.
