As Africans are being celebrated today, President of Zimbabwe’s opposition party, Citizens Coalition For Change, Nelson Chamisa has outlined measures that can make Africa prosperous if they are well implemented.
Held annually on May 25th, Africa Day commemorates the day in 1963 that 32 African countries signed the Charter of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), which later evolved into the African Union (AU).
The theme for Africa Day 2023 has been selected by the African Union (AU) as “Acceleration of AfCFTA implementation“.
But Nelson Chamisa believes, the greater prosperity to the Africa continent that the Africa Leaders are seeking cannot be achieved until rigging of elections, coups, violence and terrorism end.
He added that there is no true happiness without true freedom.
“Africa can not be truly free until all Africa and Africans are free. Africa will not be truly prosperous until all Africa and Africans truly and fully stop and reject the rigging of elections, coups, violence and terrorism upon building mechanisms of dealing with the same in any African country! We must strengthen democracy and the Responsibility To Protect doctrine and framework”. Nelson said in a statement to commemorate Africa Day.
