What I never understood is why the Chinese built our headquarter. I was so angry 200 million, you want to tell us that all the 55 nations combined could not raise 200 million so that we can make it ourselves, it had to be a "gift" from the Chinese and you wonder why Africa will never grow, we love free lunches and the fact that they found bugs in the HQ just goes to show there is nothing like free. Africa stay woke don't be fooled.

French African countries need to get France off their backs, France has been fleecing those countries for years and it has to stop before Africa can move forward, if Africa unit as one nation it means that all of Africa will now be giving France an annual allowance in return for the independence of some African countries, shake off France.

Afrika has more countries than any other continent in the world because those other countries are united while Afrika is not. The Afrikan continent needs to unite politically with one strong military, one Economy. This would make Afrika the most powerful in the world considering all the natural resources. Thanks for sharing your information

RIP Muammar Gaddafi❤️ They did you wrong. Nelson Mandela and the ANC did you wrong too. RIP brother.

Woooooow!!! Another very fascinating educational video!!! Kwame Nkrumah was a great African leader who impacted Africa greatly!!! Thank you for this. I learn alot from this great channel.

Another great lesson!! Risen Africa keep doing what you do!!👍

Man, this is yet another amazing video! I love learning about Africa though your channel. Many challenges ahead for the African Union, but it seems like they are on a good path. Thank you so much for all the hard work you are putting into your videos!

It takes a lot of painstaking research to put together such masterpiece 👌. This channel is in a class of its own. 👏 Congratulations for a job well done.

Keep teaching us brother, great video. #UniteWeMust✊🏿🌍

I love it! Finally a reasonable and optimistic voice about the African union!

Thank you risen Africa for your educational video, this will make us those with little knowledge abou the origin of the African union to become more aware about it. Thank you really,

We need a United States of Africa. Read kwame Nkrumahs book why Africa must unite.

Your content never disappoints, always educative, thanks for the video,,,

It's really really suspect when you have China building AU headquarters

Wow. Great video on a great topic. Nice.

*RISEN AFRICA!* I love you brother🤝❤️💯 _"Cape Malay" / "Cape Coloured"_ from Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦

Thanks for this well researched and analytical presentation. Keep up your excellent work.

Great video and content, I encourage you to continue presenting us insights, analysis and updates about the union frequently. Slight correction points; > Currently, the AU Commission comprises of 8 elected positions (Not 10): Chairperson, Deputy Chairperson and 6 Commissioners > Morocco rejoined the AU and became 55 member state in 2017 not 2007

I know it will be tough for many people , but languages other than Swahili and Arabic should be removed from the official languages of the AU , and more indigenous languages like Amharic , Fulani , Yoruba , Oromo , Somali , Berber Igbo , Manding and other languages should be implemented for better representation of the Continent. If you all really want to be free , then all kinds of Colonialism and Colonial Stuff should be rooted out as soon as possible.

Am glad I found this channel

I have always been in support of one Africa but how do we do it without setting ourselves up for failure? We need to plan before anything else. The fact is that our continent is the poorest in the world (even though we are actually a very rich continent in truth), we have very poor infrastructure and a lot of internal conflicts. These are not going to magically go away once we drop our borders. We need a solid plan. My suggestion: we put out a plan for every independent state to put in the actual work, upgrade the infrastructure, build schools, clinics, hospitals and universities. Work towards ending tribalism because it causes divisions People deserve to have access to healthcare services and education and a good quality of life no matter where they are in Africa. The African Union should then monitor the progress of each country over the years. This will help us stop competition for scarce resources or overcrowding of certain regions of the continent. The fact is that people go where there are resources, where they can feed themselves and their families. When we have put in the work then we can think about becoming one Africa not now. We will only be causing ourselves problems. ✌️

watching nice nice dont stop! oh and have the greatest year yet of your life in 2022 iJn

Thabk You for this. Timely and important analysis.

This is a fascinating video ' I thank you as always for providing knowledge to us and your hard work! Hope to see African union to get to the ground and act towards our continent strength in every aspect...unity is building up for each other instead of pointing fingers and end up destroying what our heroes built....hope fully #one love from Ethiopia for each and everyone of you.

I really like your videos. Love and support from Israel (-:

Danko I love the information

Thank you for the amazing videos and a Happy - and productive - 2022!

Thé should be a tv channel for this program alone, Africans need more enlightenment now than ever

Very educative video. Keep it up!

I simply enjoy your videos! Keep it up!

United States of Africa is a difficult project to implement. Pls don't be simplistic. First, we do not trust each other, secondly the thirst for power is unquenchable, thirdly the western world will not allow you to achieve it because u will be too powerful for their liking.

Africa: Leave us alone! Europe: What are Crazy HELL NO!!

Thank you for always informing us on our beautiful continent.

Just donated. You do good work.

A nice piece! Keep it up!

Leopold Senghor of Senegal was working for France. This is the same thing you see how members from Francophone countries have been been very opposed to forward thinking politicians like Julius Malema (EFF- South Africa). Let us Kick France out of Africa plus their french language to stop them from interference. I like what Mali has done recently. Kicked all the French troops out of there and it's Bambara the language that is mostly spoken by all Malian people but no more French.

Umoja wetu waafrika ni nguvu na utengano ni udhaifu. Mungu Ibariki Afrika!

Great content, you just gained a subcriber, Gadaffi's vision was a good one, we should beware of China

Good that the fact that China spied on the AU was highlighted! That clearly shows that China isn’t some benevolent saviour or benefactor. One neo-colonial power isn’t better than any other and that applies even if said power goes about projecting its influence in more “comfortable” ways.

Thanks a lot for this great content

Very informative 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you 🙏🏾 ❤️🇿🇦

Another excellent video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

i hope thjey checked everywhere for spying malware cause that headquarters thing is ridiculous

Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰

Over time the African Union will continue be a more relevant body easpecially if continent continues to gain streaght in unity and trade.

oh this is good news , africa moving forward and dont STOP .....engineers , technicians, etc ...thats the best start ....and africa can mine in safe conditions and keep hold of the resources in storage if needed . ...yes african brothers keep it up.

Amazing video as always! Sorry I’m late, I had a long flight. I love how I’m depth this is and I love how you connected it once again to the Gaddafi videos. Question: if all of the African continent were to become a single political unit, a la the United States or Mexico, like the OAU originally strives for, do you thing member states would exchange territory where it would make more sense among ethnic-religious-linguistic divides? The USA’s system and state format doesn’t really account for these divides (partly because the US is so intermingled), but do you think an African Political Union such as thar prescribed by the OAU would work? Sorry if this comment is a bit messy I haven’t slept in over 24 hours Great video as always! Lots of Love and Support, May Ladybird

Keep up the good work ❤

Amazing Channel

French-speaking countries have always held africa back

It's idiotic that they allowed a foreign, financially exploitative opportunist, to build their headquarters. Make it make sense.

Africa please be careful of China’s influences! Live long and prosper, y’all,

There could be no Africa unity with South Africa's discriminatory stance...with that behind us it's time to move on rapidly..

How can they say that is a sovereign country without land for the people

Huge betrayal by the Monrovia group. They say had I known is always at last. Now we've seen the light,let us forge together and build a prosperous future for our next generation. Unite with the mindset of Kwame Nkrumah. May his soul rest in peace.

People don't realize that Europe was extremely similar to Africa around 100 years ago. Africa's development was disrupted and postponed until the countries were given independence.

TY 🙂

Was not the Oau formed before the Eu when the latter was been mulled about.

So Le Monde (A french/western publication) claimed that there were bugs in the AU building and it was taken as an "unquestioned truth" , I am no defender of the Chinese(so it may be true) but we need to be abit careful of the news we accept by questioning the sources of this news and their motives,(or inherent biases)

Very nice video ! But Morocco came back in 2017***, not 2007.

Thank you very much... as a request , how about to outline AU mandate portfolio for us - and delegates / committee and public participation in AU to build Africa we ( Africans ) we need / demand - because , we got ALL the means / resource / labor and lack cohering and expertise is not as yet uhuru. Thanks again.

We should keep the ideology of Kwame alive by making it a mantra to all African children. We have to start investing in the future by giving our children the right ideas

The Casablanca Bloc had the best vision!!!

I like the video 👌my question is how does one become a member of the african union and can one become a member of the african union independently.

Reunification is thee only answer!

Do you upload your videos on lbry, for fear of when they are deleted on KZfaq

never thought about how a lot of international orgs causes human resources to be spread thin

Thank U...Loving This😹😜🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽🍫🎉🍠👍🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏼+Blasians👍👍🏾/👍👍🏼👍🏽__African unions_Dictators club_All Africa n Parliament.Dear Alpha True GOD Truth Amazing...

Montovia-group Unity = Sovereign United states of Africa. Political unity. Casablanca-group = United states of Sovereign states. Political federations but loose association. The casablanca-group won the fight and colinialism continues to this day. Somalia has not had an aporoved constitution since 1961 yet it still has its membership.

OUR MIDSET IS UNION . Nothing can be done about the past and the unpredictable future .

African Union = use No one will come save us but ourselves my sisters and brothers

African is a great continent

Like seriously. We don’t have an African navy or navies. Who’s protecting our waters?

Africa arise!!!!💪

#unitedStatesOfAfrica

👏👏👏💙💜

Nigeria is the Largest contributor of AU budget just like the African Development Bank.

Africa needs to remove all foreign militias and colonist embassies/ high commission so they can sort out uniting themselves without risk of sabotage. Meanwhile remove all Africans who side with the colonialist

...Still under control from outside of Afrika, we need a revolution. YHWH be with us.

Kwame nkrumah should come and see how African leaders are still fooling after they have sacrifice thier lifes just Africa and Africa to send on its own feet and thier own affairs

PAN African parliament must be strengthened. United Empires of Afrika.

there may ever be strings attached, but better a client of china than an european colony

In time to come africa shall have one passport and currency.

africa definetely needs to unite and open a new market which wil benefit the continent itself. The hell with the UN because the UN means China, Us (or Israel) . I am north african and step 1 is getting rid of this devide between sub saharan africa and north africa and east africa vs west africa . Letting China built railroads for you? I went mad as shit ,when wil we africans learn ? Thats what happens when we are divided! We have everything we need on this continent. resources,high percentage of young people ,beautiful smiling people but we are not united . Its a shame! Now we have a continent divided,depraved from its resources and each dollar invested from the west in africa means that eventually 11 dollars go back to the west and 2 pennies goes to the africans who sold their own land and people . tep 1.Stop paying interest over so called money the west is BORROWING YOu(after stealing everything )Interest makes richest richer and poor people poor and slaves .(yes its a form of slavery) . 2. UNite and get rid of tribalism. History has proven that once people unite with other people you come up with more ideas,but you wnat to stay PROUD and look down upon other? Go ahead and let your ''ministers'' go around USA and western countries to ask them for more money.

Monrovia bloc probably had the right idea....

❤❤

Bigups dawg for this master piece 👌. But the African Union is a waste institution 🙂

This is all politics the real reason why Haiti was deny membership is because it woulda been black people unifying nationally and the last thing the world wants to see especially Europeans an USA is for Black people no matter what nationality, ethnicity, religion, and or language to unified. I have no doubt in my mind that the AU was told through politics not to do so or there will be consequences. And we need to understand that the AU is colonized meaning they would be over marked by Europe ans

that's a wrong map of the EU

We have a union but not really United and not effective.

AFRICAN MINDSET

AFRICAN UNION HAS POTENTIAL, BUT HAS A LONG WAY TO GO. I KING/MESSIAH/RULER (GOD/YAH/JESUS/YAHSHUA) WILL GIVE (AU/UBAK) UNITED BLACK AFRICAN KINGDOM THE TEETH THAT IT NEEDS!!!!!!

Africa is still mired in poverty, unemployment and ignorance. There can never be free movement of people on the continent because it will be a disaster, mass migrations, boats and chaos. Africa needs 5,000 years to implement the idea of ​​freedom of movement on the continent

I understand why all those European languages are official AU languages but why is Spanish an official language of the AU🤔

Why our soldiers have EU face masks 😷 are we independent 😂

Brother man go back and do your homework work good because the OAU that is AU today was found in liberia even the first meeting was held in liberia 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

It needs to be dismantled

I guess the Chinese didn't build nothing for free 😁. They bugged it.
