Title ProperNkrumahism, Agenda 2063, and the Role of Intergovernmental Institutions in Fast-tracking Continental Unity
LanguageENG
AuthorBabatunde Fagbayibo ;  Fagbayibo, Babatunde
Summary / Abstract (Note)The doctrinal relationship between Nkrumahism and the African Union Agenda 2063 informs the basis of this article. If continental supranationalism remains the end product of both processes, the question then is to what extent are intergovernmental institutions positioned to achieve this? In addressing this point, the article discusses the roles the two key intergovernmental institutions, the African Union Commission and the Pan-African Parliament, can both play in deepening the integration agenda, and more specifically, the implementation plan of Agenda 2063. The article argues that the existent configuration of both institutions prevents any meaningful advancement towards a deepened integrative agenda. It then proffers ways of counteracting this.
