The future of Africans, in my view, lies in the unity of Africa and seeing Africa as one both in socio-economic and, if possible, political sense. We really need to improve free movement of people across Africa by having roads across, airspace and rails because that is the only way we can take advantage of this great expansive place we are in. Right now, you know how sad it is that many young Africans die in the Mediterranean Ocean trying to run away from Africa to go and live in Europe. They say they would rather die in that effort than in this Continent. We must improve that. If you look at all the great and powerful nations, it is the expanse and the large populations that they have. If you look at the USA, basically that is their main strength. If you look at China and how it is coming up, it is a huge expanse that is actually one unit. Look at Russia; I believe that it is for the same reason that it is attacking Ukraine. They are hoping for the previous great Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR), which was a great nation. Look at what India is doing. Unless we get together, we will not go far. That was the dream of our great leaders who led us out of colonialism such as Kwame Nkrumah, Julius Nyerere, Sekou Toure and Tom Mboya. They had the idea of having one great United States of Africa. Of course, the colonialists would never allow it and it did not work. It is still possible to have a Union of Africa, more or less in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
