The purpose of the African Union is to unite Africa and help it develop for the best interest of the Africans. The current African leaders are not bold to stand for what they belief in but rather give in to the demands of the whites or their colonial masters. Mining of crude oil in countries such as Nigeria should be processed in Africa then exposed to other countries than being exported for processing in outside countries then sold back at higher prices to Africans.What can it cost the continent to have the processing technology i Africa?
