While calls for unity dominated Africa Day celebrations across the continent, critics of the African Union claim no real action has been taken to heal its political wounds.
In Addis Ababa where the AU is seated, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed underscored that unity is "no more a catchphrase but a means of survival" in an increasingly complex world. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa echoed Abiy, appealing for unity and to "uphold the bonds that frame our destiny."
In his address, Abiy argued for the need of an African permanent seat at the UN Security Council and proportionate representation at the G7 and G20. Ramaphosa urged for improved governance across the continent amid the conflict in Sudan as well as previous coups in Chad, Mali, Guinea and Burkina Faso.
