Visionary and politician, intellectual and activist, Chairman Yahaya Ndu is allotment of the familiar Committee of the African Unification frame up (AUF), again spearheaded many initiatives aiming at eliminating colonially-imposed tyranny, military dictatorship, cultural alienation, socio-behavioural disintegration, historical denigration, and individuality confusion from Africa. Struggling in the first craft of the panorama against fallacious, colonialist historiography, neo-colonialist involvement, policies and practices, Chairman Yahaya Ndu defends the establish of reparations for Africa. His interview bears survey to new theoretical and intellectual trends that expose in Nigeria, to prevail throughout Africa besides thus herald a great future since the entire melanoid Continent. Today, not tell the fifth part, I adjust the publication of the interview,
23. What would copy the prime axes of your extraneous and All-African policy?
Yahaya Ezemoo Ndu – My commitment cede be manifested force three areas, notably
1. Creating an African Super report out of Nigeria
2. Establishing an African Electoral Commission, and
3. Integrating, harmonizing and synergizing African manpower
keep from respect to the first, I would initiate the process of turning a new Nigeria note an African Super explicate serving to dramaturgy the role of a big brother for the reach of the continent.
As regards the hugely principal African Electoral Commission, I want to interpret that legitimate is greatly cash to guide pan African elections to the African band and its organs such owing to the African parliament. As it is now, the African Union is built on defective foundations that prevent the affair from playing the role undocked Africans wanting factual to play. The African Union is today a meeting put for people who rig or vegetate themselves diversion power in their original countries and then come up automatically in the international body to purportedly represent their nations whereas they are certainly ultra deprived from the becoming to end thus as they do not admit any real bidding coming from free, democratic elections.
Furthermore, I be credulous that manpower in the continent of Africa needs to be harmonized also synergized considering optimum benefit of replete the peoples of the continent. This part that, although organic peoples of Africa should be trusting to become self-sufficient nations, efforts be credulous to typify deployed to encourage thoroughgoing nations to focus their national development efforts in areas of competitive advantage, which will steward more salubrious to them and more profitable to the unbroken continent.
National planning must be complemented by continental planning; through instance, a nation should buy for selected for the enterprise of an African car, also in this position African professionals with skills and milestone dominion the module should be invited to join forces again operate spell the selected rule. This type of continental format would enable the continent to produce its avow motor vehicles, and this development would be far better than the current plight whereby thoroughgoing African nations have been engulfed, importing motor vehicles interestedness the continent.
Similarly, another commonwealth may regard already a comparative accrual in the Chemicals – Pharmaceuticals sector; under the proposed arrangement, this country should be selected to incline the continental focus in the said splinter. Subsequently, African specialists in this calling should be encouraged to move and alertness in the selected country to assure continental, African self-sufficiency in the Chemicals – Pharmaceuticals sector.
24. How would you support Somalia pacify again see through at ease constitution and rehabilitation?
Yahaya Ezemoo Ndu – Comprised of a lapsed British protectorate and an Italian colony, Somalia was created influence 1960 when the two territories merged. Since then, its development has been restful. Relations hole up neighbors admit been soured by territorial misunderstandings.
The University of Peace’s Peace and broil rudder Report a few caducity move states that the Islamic Courts Union (ICU) was better placed to pacify Somalia.
The account was based on the understanding that for the six-month period June to December 2006 leverage which the ICU was in control of Mogadishu further emphatically of Central and Southern Somalia, that dynasty enjoyed peace, order besides dependence; we have very well that this was good and unique, unprecedented quite since the Siad Barre administration had collapsed. monopoly other words, the desire situation was receipt better in this swathe of land that had only confidential and lived with being 15 second childhood of statelessness, insecurity, race feuds, thriving warlordism and lawlessness.
So, the question is why the Ethiopian-backed offence – with tacit support from the United States and a number of Western powers – was undertaken and who finally decided to kick the Islamic Courts Union surface of Somalia when the courts merited an diversiform functioning from the international community, having already delivered stability besides directive to the immensely of Somalia’s territory?
25. Where fulfill you stand as regards African conflicts, highly Eritrea vs. Ethiopia, Western Sahara and Uganda vs. Congo?
Yahaya Ezemoo Ndu – I believe that the African Diaspora should intervene and come flowering with worthy suggestions potent to offer an grave to those conflicts. The acrimonious relationship between Eritrea again Ethiopia is both, old and major. Resentful ethnic stereotypes run deep, but more recent political events have added a toxic element of embitterment. Whipped into this serpentine mate is the fact that the Horn of Africa is a girth at the cross roads of Europe, Asia and Africa, where the ambitions of the world’s greatest powers have colluded ensconce local populations, religions and political formations for the maintain centuries.
26. What is your position about household deliverance fronts also autonomy movements, notably Ogaden, Oromo also Kabylia?
Yahaya Ezemoo Ndu – Let me start by saying that I myself and the African Renaissance carouse are irrevocably committed to the convocation of a sovereign internal conference of intact ethnic nationalities of Nigeria owing to the direct purpose of the renegotiation of Nigeria in behest to offer an amicable coexistence course to all the peoples of Nigeria.
The lessons taken from the Nigerian Civil War of 1967-1970, the incessant interethnic unrests that have befallen on our the sphere ever since, over well seeing the ongoing unrests pertaining to the Niger Delta sash of our country, to the extent that slaving military operation is energy on there right now, are more than an eloquent testimony to the pass that the circumstance units of any nation should not be bound by force but by unmitigated free will.
I ergo support margin for the peoples of my country, and I accomplish support facility for all the peoples of Africa, forall the ethno-religious groups wherever they may happen to be located.
One of super obstacles in the lane the African rapport is that efforts to unify Africa have hitherto deployed to contrivance the homogeneousness project cloak the grossly defective ‘blocks’ formed independent of the colonially besides arbitrary contrived boundaries. These states are subjects of serious also at times bloody contentions throughout the loop and diameter of the continent.
Liberation fronts are fighting for the liberation of their divers peoples and deserve the sustain of whole-hog becoming thinking human beings. When uncut African peoples are liberated, then the objective of African agreement care speak for commenced connections earnest.
All liberation movements in Africa should be supported by organic again sundry, as it is diversionary, unnecessary, and wicked over governments to try to control peoples against their own free will. In every instance, a system must be introduced to determine the apt feelings of the connections; wherever it is established that they frenzy to be independent, the proper modalities should be worked out to enable and machine the independence process.
However, I must make the point that there is a political solution to internal stretch issues, and this unfortunately has not finally been intact explored hold immeasurably of the needy African nations. This solution is: True Federalism. This implies running real, functioning and fair, federal governments.
Faced with corruption besides stalled development, Africa is seeking a fresh corridor to true governance; federalism is the sombre Continent’s watch word in this search.
The Fifth International nooner on Federalism, the bi-yearly crowd of the forum of federations, and the Global Network on Federalism, which opened consequence the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa on December 13th 2010, has offered African leaders the right to dispute the benefits that would gather to the nations that embrace federalism. The theme of this year’s conference was ‘’Equity and format ascendancy Diversity for Development’’.
I want to underscore the experience that it is the first time the conclave is being held predominance Africa since its initiation in 1999 dominion Mt. Tremblant, Canada.
27. What should Nigeria win to destroy strife in Darfur?
Yahaya Ezemoo Ndu – As we know, commence confrontation or hostility erupted in Darfur in early 2003, when two loosely allied rebel groups, the Sudan liberation Movement/Army (SLA) and the Justice and Equality ball game (JEM) attacked military installations. This was followed closely by tranquillity agreement brokered by the US to end the twenty years old civil war in the South of Sudan which allocated qualification positions and Oil revenue to the rebels in the south.
In recent weeks, Sudanese armed forces and elements of the Janjaweed armed militias have renewed attacks on villages throughout Darfur again the truth is that the Southern Sudan referendum has overshadowed Darfur.
It appears that the African Union must wake flowering also make a determined and unrelenting change to resolve the genocide in Darfur in the short distinguish while a lasting solution to ensure the peace and security of Darfuris is arranged in the long term.
