In order to no longer rely on international peacekeeping efforts, the African Union (AU) is establishing a new multinational force called the “African Standby Force” (ASF), reports the BBC.

While the logistical base of ASF will be located in Douala, Cameroon, the training of the soldiers will take place in Lohatla at the South African Army Combat Training Center.
In fact, starting Tuesday, 5,000 military and police officers will begin their training by attempting to handle a dispute in a “fictitious country” — even though the force is yet to be fully funded.
The African Union reportedly needs another $1 billion in order to make the ASF fully operational.
In addition to money challenges, there are reports that some African Union member states are exercising a “lack of political will,” which could further challenge the ASF’s existence.
Either way, once fully actualized, the ASF will have the power to enter any AU nation without permission in instances of war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity.

Give Now! Black Nationalism destroys injustice. http://www.gardeninggiftsformother.blogspot.com Love yourself.
Remember Black Nationalism destroys injustice. If we capture just 10% of that 400 Billion, Black Dollars during the Christmas Boycott, that would securely fund nearly every treasury on this list. I'm still waiting upon all legitimate Black Nationalist groups to send me their treasury information and address so I can add it to the blog. Much love to those who have shared this blog, who help spread the word. Share this information on your timeline. The more of our people who know the more of them we can capture and reach our goals. Love Sango -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Help save Gullah Gee Chee land. Fighting hard for African liberation since the 17th century, descendants of Angola, the Gullah Gee Chee people, managed to preserve some of their native tongue, their ancestry culture and pride. From slave revolts to freeing other slaves, civil rights struggle, Pan-Africanism, many of the members of the famed, "Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church" of Charleston are Gullah Gee Chee descendants. Because of the low state of economy of South Carolina's Low Country, government seizure of their lands and vicious taxation, many Gullah people are losing their lands. But you can help them out with a small donation. Here is their GoFundMe page: https://www.gofundme.com/panafricanfamilyem

Henry Garnett said, "If we are to bleed, then lets bleed all at once. Those who have it to give should give large amounts. In the upper ranges of $250.00 one time. If we can get 10,000 people to give $250 that would be $2.5 Million to complete , His Royal Majesty Oba Adefunmi II's 7 year plan, all in month. So give now! Up you Mighty Nation!

Greetings,
I want to complete my life's destiny and I'm on a fast track of doing what I was born to do. My faith in Baba Sango, the spirit of justice, is not misplaced. Recently my mother transitioned on 11/17/15, and I didn't find out about it until yesterday. I didn't weep no tears but in my heart I felt nothing but love for the one who gave me birth. We must always see ourselves as what our mothers want us to be. I am the war of my life or the war of Orunmila but victory lies in Sango causing me to rise. This program I present is the boldest step we shall ever undertake as a people at this time. This call to action requires all 2 billion Africans on planet Earth to assist and raise One Billion Dollars for Nnaabagereka Sylvia Nagginda Queen Mother of Africa for her two organizational works, which I believe are the most important project taken up by any African in history. And when we look at changing Africa we have to be realistic. I want to change Africa, many want to change Africa, many are quite capable of changing Africa. But which one stands the most chance of completing this lofty and tremendous objective? We have to look at logistics, who has the political power, structure, resources and organization, plus the grand vision to accomplish such a undertaking? There is no other African on the planet, who is in better position to change Africa, Nnaabagereka Sylvia Nagginda Queen Mother of Africa. Buganda Kingdom lies at the base of the Nile, speaking of Nile Valley civilization, this is it! Uganda is a rich country, they have plenty of resources, and Nnaabagereka Sylvia Nagginda has two organization built for the purpose of lifting up 3/4ths of the African world, which are women and children. Nnabagereka Development Foundation and the African Queens and Women Cultural Leaders’ Network, one organization the Queen Mother of Ghana Tooro Queen Mother Best Kemigisa co-assists. I advise all African American women leaders to join her organization no matter what your faith, political persuasion or point of view. What the, Nnabagereka Development Foundation and the African Queens and Women Cultural Leaders’ Network, will do is uplift Buganda, the Queen's helpers, who will spread out and start satellite cities all over African where resources, medical, educational and cultural can reach those in most need. It would bring together North, South, East, West and Central Africa, along with Diaspora. Especially Diaspora in the U.S, U.K, the Caribbeans, and Brazil, who would like to contribute to the healing of Africa.
I am praying that the Nnabagereka Development Foundation and the African Queens and Women Cultural Leaders’ Network partners with the St. Jude Family projects to teach agriculture and botanical skills to Africans who come to exchange at Nnabagereka Development Foundation. I'm speaking of medical herb training to deal naturally with the many diseases that are shorting the lifespans of Africans. By financing powering Nnabagereka Development Foundation we in turn power the cabinet system of Buganda to unite the government and people behind Queen Mother Sylvia to reach many cities in Africa. We need an ambassador city and Kampala is a vibrant and safe city on the rise in East Africa. Then we can branch out to other cities like Porto Novo, Quidah, Benin, Johannesburg South Africa, Lagos, Nigeria, Kinshasa, Congo, Dakar, Senegal, Freetown , Western Area, Siearra Leone, etc. Its not hard to understand that Africa is huge and we need to start someplace to change it. Logistic wise the best suitable place to launch such huge change is Buganda Kingdom. Traditional African government is the future of Africa and the re-igniting of our empirical glory. This isn't for the weak of spirit or faint of heart. We need those of resolve, courage, who want to feel responsible for change. What side of history will you choose?
Everyone should send equivalent to 1 U.S Dollar, the world's reserve currency, by converting it over into your concurrency and sending your dollar electronically or via mail if electronic is not possible. This is a worldwide campaign and will unite our people all over the world. So give one dollar per every member of your household. Our blog will lead you to this website of Nnabagereka Development Foundation, here you can donate electronically or search the mailing address to send in your contribution. We will keep sending until we can't no more and we will reach $1 Billion Dollars or more. Trust me, we will succeed. The drive starts now, so spread the word, whatever you can spread the word, translate it, pass it on to friends and family, we can do whatever we will. Love, Sango
Nnabagereka Development Foundation 2 Billion Africans
