Episode description

Last week, the United Nations passed a resolution condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. But the vote split African nations: with 25 voting for, 17 abstaining and just one - Eritrea - voting against it. Disagreements over who to support in the conflict have split the general public as well. But today on Africa Daily we speak to a political analyst who says it’s time Africa stops treating the war ‘like a football match’ and instead thinks more deeply about how it will impact the continent. So how can Africa best defend its own interests and become a player on the world stage?
