Economic and political integration has always been a goal for Africa and its people. This is why the Organization of African Unity (OAU) was established in 1964 to promote unity across the continent and prevent Africa from splitting into rival camps at the height of the Cold War. The OAU played a key role in promotingp an-African cooperation and in the emancipation of countries under colonial or racist rule. The Abuja Treaty Establishing the African Economic Community (AEC)in 1994 then laid a new framework and foundation for Africa’s integration, with regional economic communities (RECs) as the building blocks.
