Le PDG M. Celestin Bkonzi

A
frica, the Black continent, is considered now the wealthiest, however, could Africans barely think about such wealth. What had happened to this blessed and wrecked land, some people keep asking?

Celestin Bkonzi ‘s life has something to do with what seems at the same time a fairy tale and a kind of bible curse.

From very humble beginnings, M.Bkonzi  had gone through hard times. But, M.Bkonzi had never been a man to dwell into past. He also was a man of faith. Over the years, even though he had been far away to see a light at the end of the tunnel, he remained stuck to his main goal which still today consists of feeding his family and gives a fine education to his children. He had made it.

Today, this Congo born entrepreneur spends plenty of time thanking  God for so many blessings. He thanks also people who have been helping him as time pass by. He is so much grateful with happiness lighting up his face when talking to Mom Carmelle, a Haitian lady who was there for him,he says.  M. Bkonzi’s journey was one worth a magazine story.  As Midas in the Greek legend, everything M. Bkonzi has been through  was transformed into gold. “ I have a lot of people working for me through rivers and dug lakes …Mom Carmelle, God has blessed me so much”, M.Bkonzi concludes.

Now he dreams of travelling overseas while embodying the other side of the African life. A respected man who continues to have a good life, M. Bkonzi goes to the best hotels in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, his  adoption country where the sun shines for him. His visitors are welcome in the  best restaurants,  as well as in the top  snowed Kilimanjaro and his family home. Life for him was never so beautiful as it is today. A Muslim in this so peaceful Tanzania, M. Bkonzi believes that his god is  a quiet and loving one who wants people on earth to be happy and grateful.
This still young entrepreneur is about  to lunch Overseas Dream, a joint ventures business along with his  Haitian partners,a social worker, Ms Marie C. Obas and a medical  doctor, Gaston Valcin.
