AFRICA UNITE

The long waited African Unity is on the table now. The question is it possible Africa to unite? Yes, it is possible Africa to unite for the sake of their situation and the need to improve the need of their citizens. Africa is the only continental that is divided economically, and politically. However, the outcome depends on the future African State. It is not an easy task, bit it depends on how African leaders feels the unity. On the other hand, it is a legacy of the founding fathers. Therefore, if they do not agree, it at least revived what many great African leaders advocated.


If they do not agree what is the next step? The reality is that the democratized wealthy Europe could agree the unity; therefore, it is worth trying it. However, they should at least agree much better border crossing system, which allows African Citizens to freely cross border and buy or sell product anywhere they want. That would be a a much better reality that may come sooner than the much waited African One State. It is also the reality for the time being. The outcome of this meeting does not reflect the success or failure of this meeting. Currently, many countries are ruled by dictator, other countries are torn apart by civil war. These leaders have different values and views, but their conviction is to work on African Unity.
