A Practical and Original Guide to African Unity

Nowadays the notion of emergence and development is in vogue. In almost all domains of life humanity is striving to emerge or improve upon existing living conditions. Some States which are lagging behind in the realm of emergence and development are endeavouring to breach the gap between them and the developed States. Conversely some States are behaving as if retrogression is the order of the day in their daily activities. This is obviously the case with African States. It is in this light that I feel that there should be a radical or revolutionary approach to the notion of emergence and development in these States. As far as I am concerned this radical or revolutionary approach is a pragmatic or practical journey - especially from various grassroots institutions - to a genuine unity and solidarity within the framework of a powerful federal republic involving all existing African States.
