Dr Abu Sakara urges African youth to seize global upheaval for economic emancipation

Former presidential candidate and Pan-Africanist Dr Foster Abu Sakara, has urged African youth to seize the current upheaval in the global geopolitical and economic order to advance the continent’s long-standing quest for economic freedom.“We're no longer bound by physical chains,” he said on Saturday, September 5, arguing that the economic and political architecture of the global system continues to restrict Africa’s freedom and opportunities.

Instead, he called for a deeper process through which people of African descent could return and establish integrated communities within Africa, creating long-term social, economic and cultural links.
