It’s actually very complicated in this active life to listen news on TV, therefore I just use the
web for that reason, and take the most recent news.
How can border demarcation be considered a model when it solidifies African divisions whilst the AU and many African countries preach unity and regional integration? It is sad that we Africans are confused and lack vision to fully liberate ourselves from the colonial legacy, instead we are consolidating it. What a waste of resources, the money used could have improved the livelihoods of those neighbouring communities and uplifted hem instead of further dividing them.
Correct, instead of uniting, we keep on consolidating division.
Correct. Like how do you divide maasai relatives living on each side? We should be talking of integration.
AU refers it a ‘model’ ???!!?? Union and Division in one sentence is just sarcastic. 🤔🤔🤔
Borders should be notional and not physical barriers that prevents integration. What this boarder is doing is actually severing communities along the boarder. You are splitting families and communities. People along the boarder either side in most cases are one people, one tribe, related and interdependent.
What will the demarcation yield that was not Achieved since scramble for African soil if not divisions?
