Algiers, Algeria | July 24th, 2024 — Samia Yaba Christina Nkrumah, a distinguished Ghanaian politician and founder of the Kwame Nkrumah Pan African Centre, recently shared her compelling vision for African unity and self-determination during an interview with Dzair Tube. This conversation took place on the sidelines of the International Seminar on the Algerian Revolution’s African Dimension, held at the El Aurassi Hotel in Algiers.

In her remarks, Nkrumah addressed the pressing challenges facing the African continent, particularly highlighting the ongoing dispute in Western Sahara. “Today, the continent faces significant challenges,” she stated, “notably in Western Sahara, where the UN-mandated referendum remains elusive.” She emphasized her belief in African self-reliance, advocating for a unified approach to resolve conflicts and disputes independently, free from external intervention.

Nkrumah lauded Algeria’s role as a beacon of revolutionary values. “Algeria stands as a pivotal nation in this endeavor,” she said, reflecting on its unwavering support for self-determination. She underscored Algeria’s historical contributions to the African liberation movement, noting that its dedication continues to inspire solidarity among the descendants of revolutionary traditions. The speaker highlighted Algeria’s sacrifices and its persistent commitment, arguing that the country’s past achievements could serve as a guiding light for Africa’s future aspirations.

Looking ahead, Nkrumah called for greater economic cooperation among African nations. She emphasized the necessity of uniting economically to build industries and elevate living standards across the continent. “Achieving these goals hinges on African unity, free from external interference,” she asserted. This call for economic collaboration is seen as crucial for advancing development and fostering a more integrated and self-sufficient continent.

Nkrumah’s vision extends to resolving the Western Sahara issue through purely African negotiations. She envisions a future where an independent Sahara Republic emerges, exercising full sovereignty and self-rule. This perspective underscores her commitment to achieving a self-determined resolution to one of Africa’s most enduring conflicts.

In conclusion, Nkrumah celebrated Algeria’s pivotal role in the continental struggle for independence and called upon all African nations to emulate its spirit of unity and self-reliance. “Only through collective effort and unwavering commitment to African unity can the continent achieve true independence and prosperity,” she declared. Her message is a resounding call to action, urging African nations to unite in their pursuit of self-determination and economic progress.
