We Africa are crying for united Africa before 25 years fore now can this be possible? For me, it can be possible if all African's Leaders will Put their head together and fight for United Africa where peace will rain just like In United State Of America. I'm seeing Africa becoming one of the most talk about continent in the whole world in few years to come. But Africa are having 3 problems 1. the problems of Leadership (2) Poverty is Rolling a serious alarm in so many part of it's counties (3) Corruption is slowing down the devlopment. If Africa can solves below problems they are on the right track to fight for United Africa where development will take place. My question, Can Africa Attend to United Africa? does is possible? Please, i need more response and comment on this issue. Thanks for reading and response. from www.dollarsforum.com

Yes, i a gree with you. It is possible to have united Africa , if only Africans will come together in love move the vission and the idea forward. And also open up to themselves and grow in love. American are riches country for now because they love themselves and are will to learn from their mistakes. If Africa will learn from their mistake and accept that humanity love with one mind. we can attend the United Africa Vission.

Africa, the richest in natural resources continent and only piece of land God Himself found safe to run to, has no excuse whatsoevr for its present conditions! I strongly believe that there is great hope for Africa and Africans! I believe Africans are capable of managing their own natural resources for the greater good of the continent and the various African nations. I believe what the people of Africa need, in terms of international relations, are fellow laborers and not task masters! I believe Africa can again become the lighthouse for the world. If by "United Africa" you mean one huge nation as in the United States of America, then I think that is a very bad idea. While the people of Africa need to work together closely, and support and profit from each other, an African federal system could be very disastrous! The African continent is just too large with too many customs, dialects, ecosystem, etc. for such a venture. Besides, even your model nation - USA - has never learned to manage such a system. I would rather that the African nations retain their various sovereignity, while embarking on free market, demanding rights to goods pricing and embracing technological advances.
