Statement at the Second Meeting of the OAU/AEC Committee on Coordination

"Let me conclude by reemphasizing the commitment of all our leaders to the unity of the Continent and to the socio-economic wellbeing of the its peoples. In this regard, we have a collective responsibility to ensuring the full involvement of all the segments of the African Society in the African Union, through their effective sensitization and mobilization. Our present meeting affords us an opportunity to concretize our ideas on how to make the African dream a reality." - Dr. Salim, June 5, 2001
