Do you think appointing a “President of Africa” will improve unity among African citizens?
BACKGROUND:
Zimbabwe's
president, Robert Mugabe, on Jan.15 called upon his peers to focus on
the appointment of one president to lead Africa when the forthcoming
African Union (AU) summit meets soon.
Mugabe
said the summit should discuss the appointment of a 'President of
Africa' to foster unity among Africans and ensure that member states
adhere to the founding principles of the original Organization of
African Unity.
The
proposal to set up a 'United States of Africa' was first mooted by the
late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in 1999 as a way of ending the
continent's conflicts, but it failed to gain enough support from his
African counterparts, including Uganda's president Museveni-- with some
doubting Gaddafi's real motive.
