Statement by Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Secretary of ECA at the Eleventh Ordinary Session of the Executive Council of the African Union. Mr. Janneh, on his remarks highlighted that, Africa is once again at the crossroads. The outcome of the Grand Debate will not only have ramifications for the institutional landscape of the continent but also implications for its future development. The debate is also most timely as it comes in a period of great international engagement about Africa and its development prospects. The Debate on an African Union Government is very important and opportune and will enable Africa's leaders to share their vision for the future development of Africa. Your present debate on institutional arrangements, modalities and time frame for the union underlines the essence of regional economic cooperation and integration for Africa's future and its ability to deal with its development challenges. Regional solutions are important in the sustainable management of Africa's vast natural resources in areas like governance, institutional capacity, ownership, and the environment.
