Africa’s lingua franca and its role in the successful implementation of the AfCFTA
The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is the largest free trade agreement in the world in terms of its membership and it has tremendous potential to lift millions of Africans out of poverty through boosting intra-Africa trade by ensuring that Africa has one gigantic market of over 1.3 billion people. For this to be achieved, this trade agreement must be implemented rapidly and to the letter. This article therefore argues that, among ot…
AfCFTA and Regional Integration in Africa
The concept of regional integration is not a new phenomenon; it has been raging since the 1960s when many African countries gained political independence from their erstwhile colonial masters. In essence, there were two blocs which had different views on how to integrate Africa, and the pace and veracity through which this was to be done. The first bloc was the Casablanca bloc under the leadership of Dr Kwame Nkrumah, the second was the Monrovia …
A Sankarian Perspective on the IMF Loans to South Africa – ‘Debt as a Cleverly Organised Reconquest of Africa’
The COVID -19 pandemic that continues to ravish the world economies and snatch lives of millions of people across the world has without a doubt exacerbated the already fragile over-indebtedness of many countries globally, more especially in Africa.

The Political History of Military-Induced Conflict and Instability in Lesotho and Its Economic and Developmental Implications
The military has for a long time been used to crush dissent and to silence and stifle democratic principles in Lesotho. This small enclave country (fully surrounded by South Africa) has had, since 1966, a history of political instability, mainly triggered by skewed civil-military relations. This has impacted negatively on its economic growth and development. The central argument of this article is that stagnant and even regressive socio-economic …
Power Lies in the Barrel of a Gun
The United States of America invests heavily on their military capability and it is estimated that it spends, alone, approximately 40 per cent of what the whole world spends on military. Four of the other super powers that make up the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council ( UN-SC ) also spend a significant percentage of their national budgets on military. Chinweizu has for a long time argued that Africa needs a well-resour…
