how the hell can they be talking about the idea of a single african government when the issue of the arab invasion and colonization of northern africa has not been dealt with. the millions of blacks there [who ARE the original people] still have to deal with what the rest of africa had to deal with during the european invasion period.

LOL What a joke! The future of Africa, being discussed by a MOSTLY non-black audience.

Looks just like the white imperial conferences the Europeans used to have during the 18th and 19th centuries, when they were busy carving Africa up.

BTW, among the many names these 18th/19th century lunatics gave to thei imperial confabs was "The future of Africa,:

The times may change but white people do not!

When Africans themselves decide- maybe divide the continent into 5 or 7 large countries based roughly on geographical/cultural regions. This would then serve as the base for a new more focused African Union. Larger, fewer countries would be able to use the natural resources more efficently.

Well i like your arguement, but Sudan was the first to got it indepent from British in 1951 than Ghana, but Western world use people, Ghana had non in the region of Africa, what role hey talk play in Africa! The war of today in this world is about resouces, Ghana have non in Africa! But to me, it doesnt matter, we all Africans, Im not proud about our independent as Sudanese or as a black! It was our weak to let this people to our land!

Shalom - how about we as a people rise from all corners of the globe (blackman & woman) to take back whats rightfully ours (africa) - we need to demand for our own Political Government, schools, jobs, Army, Laws, Churches, Kings & queens & ect .... with the help of every participant this could be done in an orderly fashion, even if that means going to war against the opressor, please help spread the message - shalom i salam salakem (allthingsnew) 2012

Taking the baton from the likes of the illustrious W.E.B DuBois,the father of Pan Africanism and the great architect of the civil rights movement and George Padmore,another great Pan Africanist...

@HERU0000 Right on my Brother. Africa will never be free until all White Arab Muslim influence has been

totally eradicated from the African continent .

@HERU0000 There has to be a single African Union ( Not Government ) the Governments of all African states are in discussions to be connected continent wide. The African Union which is already underway by the way takes account of the fact there was Arab and European INFLUENCES a long time ago now, it has nothing to do with the new progress today. Sudan is already dealing with that issue by separating Arab North from Black South afetr its very long Civil War!
