Though the 71st General Assembly of the United Nations just ended successfully, a new controversy that could tear the organisation apart is brewing.

CCTV Africa is reporting that the Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe has threatened that Africa would pull out of the UN because of the global organisation’s refusal to admit the continent into the permanent membership of the United Nations Security Council despite various efforts.

Robert Mugabe returned from the UN general assembly with a pull-out threat
Mugabe claims that many attempts by the African Union to become a member of the security council had failed, according to the report which quoted the Sunday Mail.

“This year we went to UN as an African committee after we agreed to join hands and speak with one voice on the issue of vetoing power…It’s unfortunate that we had not finished and agreed on our position as the African Union, but I hope all will be fine next year
“But next year in September if they keep on refusing to accept and give the Africa Union the veto powers we will pull out,” the report quoted him as saying at the Harare International Airport upon his return to the country from the General Assembly which was held in New York, the United States.

According to the report, the security council currently comprises China, Russia, Britain, France, and the United States while Britain, France and America are said to be frustrating Africa from becoming a member.

“They must not cry foul when countries from these regions pull out and form our own Union…The Union will have countries such as China, India and other Asian countries, and then we have to see that which countries will remain in United Nations,” Mugabe said.
