>Jammeh Negatives African Union Government
>Wednesday 25th July 2007
>
>The president of the republic of The Gambia, Dr. Alhagi Yahya A.J.J.
>Jammeh, has reiterated his total opposition to the efforts of some African
>leaders to form a continental government, describing it as a joke and an
>insult to Africa.
>
>
>Speaking in a television interview over the weekend, President Jammeh said
>that there could only be a union government when one is independent.
>
>"How many countries in Africa are really independent today? We cannot have
>a United States of Africa when people cannot move from one country to the
>other," he asserted, adding the policies of those calling for the
>integration are all anti-African.
>
>According to President Jammeh, Africa's problem is not about creating a
>union government but to bring about unity and solve the common problems
>that constitute a real fix for every African. The problems, he went on, are
>poverty, disease and violence.
>
>The Gambian leader noted that there could not be a union government when
>some members of the African Union are members of the Arab League, a
>situation which, he opined, might lead to problems when a union government
>is put in place.
>
>"Why don't we put up our resources together to create a fund where we will
>be free from the IMF and the World Bank so that we have an African Monetary
>Fund where all African countries can benefit," Jammeh queried.
>
>Africa, President Jammeh added, needs real unity where the problem of one
>country becomes the problem of all others. "Somebody wants to be an emperor
>for Africa but one thing is very clear. Gambia will not be colonized
>twice," he noted.
>
>He was however quick to add that such a government could never be brought
>about by the heads but that it has to be engineered by the people at the
>grassroots level.
>
>He noted that this is only possible if the people know each other, relate
>and interact freely as Africans.
>
>Turning to the West, President Jammeh said instead of putting an end to
>Africa's wars, the G8 saw a golden opportunity to fuel wars in Africa by
>saying that African leaders must judge each other. "In their peer review
>mechanism in the West, are there the same violations of human rights?" he
>queried.
>
>The Gambian leader concluded by charging that Africans and Asians are being
>killed on a daily basis and no investigation is carried out just because
>they are black or brown and not Europeans.
