MDC President, Nelson Chamisa said today that Africa needs to come together and create a United States Of Africa.
Chamisa was responding on Twitter to a question on his take on Gaddafi’s dream of having the United States Of Africa?
Said Chamisa:
The time for a United States of Africa is now. That is our mandate as a generation. OneAfrica, One people.The continental free trade area and the AU institutions a good starting point.
The United States of Africa is a concept of a federation of African states into one massive country that has been proposed by some African leaders for decades now but was most notably proposed by late Libyan president in February 2009. The African Union has set itself the task of building a “united and integrated” Africa by 2025.
