It is a historic day for the United States where Americans would have to choose between Former President Donald Trump and Vice President, Kamala Harris.This decisive poll will not just mean a lot for global politics but could also impact US-Africa relations.With our expert, For You Media Africa tries to accentuate how Africa can place itself at the winning end of the table.
An expert once said leaders need to make their nations great before holding talks in a global arena.
The long awaited day for Americans has come for them to decide whether Former US President, Donald Trump or Vice President, Kamala Harris will take the baton of command.
While experts anticipate the outcome of these elections to affect the nation’s future, there is equally a question of if these elections could result in a paradigm shift in relations with the African continent. Especially at a time where there is a renewed call for Africa to review its foreign policies.
According to Dr. Stanley FONGOD, PAN-AFRICANIST and Researcher, Kamala Harris brought to the post of being a candidate but is « incompetent » to take America forward which implies « degraded » relations with Africa.
« …if someone like Kamala Harris comes to power, we will have tremendous problems on the African continent. These are men and women in the Democrat party who are pushing for the transgender movement on the continent of Africa. She was in Ghana not too long ago pushing for that agenda » he stressed calling on Africans to preserve their culture and norms.
With the firm call for Africa to collaborate, push the continent forward and move past reckoning, he stressed Trump might just be what America needs as he whispers unity and that could fast track Africa’s emergence.
« To know where Donald Trump stands, Africans need to revisit one of his last addresses at the United Nations where he told the World how great America was and told them to go back and make their countries great… We need to basically look at ourselves and not have the West impose on the continent. »
