The UN is AUs biggest donor.

I don't have any more confidence in regional trade blocks bodies because they are formed under the watchful eye of the WTO. They are all pieces of the globalised Western domination.

As a regional trade block, ECOWAS is a failure and an instrument of the West, but in ensuring stability it has done well as a region.

freshest4live:

You are right Jarry, everything is under Western domination, we are just deceiving ourselves. I remember the problems Jonathan had with the U.S for rejecting AFRICOM of the U.S in West Africa. They want to be everywhere and dominate everything.
As a regional trade block, ECOWAS is a failure and a tool of the West, but in ensuring stability in the West African region to foster prosperity, l give it a pass mark.

I remember how fast they attacked that country Gambia?

Yeah not just Gambia but they have brought peace to seirrea Leone, Liberia, Guinea Bissau, Burkina Faso, etc.

Well, whose interests are they serving with these democratic crusades and forceful regime changes?

Muafrika2:

Lol, l see where you are coming from, but some of those actions were necessary though especially that of Liberia.
If they had not intervened, Liberia would be in terrible crises even till this day with refugees all over which would have drained the resources of the region. Today liberian president Ellen Johnson is the chairperson of ECOWAS.
I wouldn't say they are serving the interest of the West in that regards. For example, Abacha was an enemy to the west, (except maybe Frances) but he championed the fight in Seirrealeone during the war in 1997, what an lrony! Even the U.S could not understand what Abacha's motives were given that Abacha himself was a stubborn dictator.
I think it's all about maintaining peace in the region. But for the fact that Boko Haram is a Nigerian problem they would have mobilized against that too in 2013, but Nigeria was given the go ahead to fight the insurgency herself.

There are some good thingstuff coming from it,

But you see, West Africa is the only place where France and it's army have been directly getting into civil wars with one side against government or vice versa too. They would not do that in any other part of Africa.

Yeah the Francophone countries in West Africa allow Frances to rule them because of their Economic challenges. So they are still colonized by Frances and they don't wanna let go yet, no one can force them until they decide to.
I believe this is partly the reason the ECOWAS body is not against Morocco's inclusion in ECOWAS.
Nigeria also wants to complete a massive gas pipeline project with Morocco, it would be beneficial to the region, and Morocco can also supply fertilizers. Things may change with a more stable economy although ironically the region is still the largest economy in Africa.

They'll end up like native Americans if we don't help them sAve themselves

Its not true, Kenyans are liers, am Tanzanian residing in Tz, the government didn't force Everton to play Tz side, the government hosted them and provided a stadium for them to play, security personnel, transportation food etc.

So your first point here is that Kenyans are liers? You all thought Tanzanians are pacifists and live in a honorable utopia...
