Last night, thanks to insomnia (8^], I heard International Question Time on
the BBC World Service. One of the guests fielding queries phoned and
e-mailed in from everywhere was one Tajudeen Abdul-Rahim, a Nigerian based
in Uganda and heading an NGO called, I think, the Pan-African Movement
(or Union). This org, which I suspect actually exists beyond the person
of its secretary-general, has the objective of Africa as a single
politically and economically integrated polity. A stunning idea when seen
against the pathos of the existing continent, but is it possible?
