Sirtes — The report of the modalities of transformation of the African Union Commission into governmental authority should be submitted for analysis at the summit of Heads of State and Governments, due to the persistence of divergences among the member states of the executive council.
This was announced on Tuesday in Syrte, by the Angolan Minister of Foreign Affairs, Assunção dos Anjos who is attending since Sunday the 15th ordinary session of the Executive Council of the African Union, preparing the summit.
According to the Minister, the modalities of transformation of the Commission into Africa Union authority is a matter that was deeply debated at the summit held in January, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and about which there was no consensus.
Thus the heads of state and government demanded the executive council to hold a meeting before Syrte summit, in order to make a deep study and address proposals for its decision by the summit.
"This meeting was held in April in Tripoli. Angola was present and defended its gradualist position. All members of the African Union propose an association of economic and political convergences, but as it is obvious this cannot be through a decree, without creating conditions so that gradually setting up the conditions for an economic union and later a political one.
According Assunção dos Anjos, at the April's meeting in Tripoli, Libya, the executive council concluded that the organ to be created - The African Union Authority - would have an intergovernmental character and not with super-national governmental power.
"It means, it would be an association of independent states and not an organisation with super-national powers, neither would have federalist characteristics", explained the Minister, adding that there was also a consensus of reinforcing the African Union partnership with regional organisms, for a better efficiency of the continental organisation.
The Angolan top diplomat also assured that the report of the executive council held in April in Libya, will be directly addressed to the 13th meeting of the heads of state and government that are to meet on Wednesday in Sirty.
Asked if this would be one more inconclusive summit with regard to the creation of the governmental authority of the meeting, he said not, adding that this matter have already been concluded at the level of the executive council, in which most of members defend the gradual position.
"The gradual position is the greatest one and was this stand took in Libya, at the level of the executive council", he said.
Minister Assunção dos Anjos also said that the creation of the authority demands alterations on the constitutional act of the organisation, which for its repeal need ratification of about two third of member countries.
According to the Minister, the council has reaffirmed the commitment of continuing increase efforts in order to eradicate conflicts in Africa, making the continent a zone of stability, apt to increment its development programme.

I .BEWARE OF THE TOWER BUILDERS
A. THE TOWER BUILDERS ??? 1. Look at the story of Nimrod and his one world crew in Genesis 11: 1-8. Nimord was a builder of cities and a mighty hunter . He was well-known for his feats and apparently could attract a lot of people to him. He must have been extremely- charismatic. Nimrod and the people acted completely as one body. There goal was to reach Heaven via building a tower; sort of like the space programs ( known & secret ). God delayed their goals by mixing up their language so they could not understand each other. Daniel 8:10 mentions what I believe to be a reference to the Nimrod of the last days (led by D-Evil) .This verse may also be referring to the space program as one of the Towers of Babel being used to attack the Kingdom of Heaven . 2. Beware o 3. 4. f any attempts by man to unite the world as one ; for the good of all. 5. 6. Here are two examples that come to mind : Simulcasting of the song We Are The World . I believe the actual tragedy of starving Ethiopians , coupled with our common love of music was used to get the world to thinking that we can save ourselves. This was followed by mini-movements like Hands-Across America and other movements ; which I believe were trying to get us to thinking like those people were thinking when Nimrod proposed that they build a Tower to Heaven. 3.
Beware The Tower Builders ! God is Our Refuge ! Our Tower !
OUR DEEPEST FEAR By Marianne Williamson
Our Deepest Fear Is Not That We Are Inadequate, Our Deepest Fear Is That We Are Powerful Beyond Measure. It Is Our Light , Not Our Darkness That Most Frightens Us.
We Ask Ourselves, Who Am I To Be Brilliant, Gorgeous, Talented, And Fabulous ?
Actually Who Are We Not To Be ? You Are A Child Of God.
Your Playing Small Doesnt Serve The World.
There Is Nothing Enlightened About Shrinking So That Other People Wont Feel Insecure Around You.
We Are All Meant To Shine, As Children Do.
We Were Born To Make Manifest The Glory Of God That Is Within Us.
Its Not Just In Some Of Us; Its In Everyone.
And When We Let Our Own Light Shine We Unconsciously Give Other People Permission To Do The Same.
And As We Are Liberated From Our Own Fear, Our Presence Automatically Liberates Others
[NOTE BEING AFRAID AND REFUSING TO GET INVOLVED WONT STOP US FROM DYING. BUT BEING AFRAID CAN PREVENT US FROM LIVING]
(Nkosi Sikeleli Africa )
God bless Africa May her glory be lifted high Hear our petitions .
God bless us, Your children God we ask You to protect our nation Intervene and end all conflicts Protect us, protect our nation, our nation.
From the blue of our heaven, From the depths of our sea, Over our eternal mountain ranges, Where the cliffs give answer.
Sounds the call to come together, And united we shall stand, Let us live and strive for freedom, In South Africa our land.
[Enoch Mankayi Sontonga]
WAKE UP ! STAY UP MY BROTHERS & SISTERS ! BE SELF-SUFFICIENT IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.
