The Organisation of African Unity (OAU; French:Organisation de l'unité africaine (OUA)) was established on 25 May 1963 in Addis Ababa, with 32 signatory governments. It was disbanded on 9 July 2002 by its last chairperson, South AfricanPresidentThabo Mbeki, and replaced by the African Union (AU).
Aims
The OAU had the following primary aims:
To co-ordinate and intensify the co-operation of African states in order to achieve a better life for the people of Africa.
To defend the sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of African states.
The OAU was also dedicated to the eradication of all forms of colonialism and white minority rule as, when it was established, there were several states that had not yet won their independence or were white minority-ruled. South Africa and Angola were two such countries. The OAU proposed two ways of ridding the continent of colonialism and white minority rule. Firstly, it would defend the interests of independent countries and help to pursue the independence those of still-colonised ones. Secondly, it would remain neutral in terms of world affairs, preventing its members from being controlled once more by outside powers.

Why the United states of Africa failed leading to OAU formation
In May 1963, thirty-two independent African States, with genuine hopes and visions for the continent of Africa, came together in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, to create the Organization of African Unity (OAU).
Thirty-two countries founded the organisation, a further 21 states joined gradually over the years, with South Africa becoming the 53rd member on 23 May 1994.
The OAU started its operations on 13 September 1963, when its Charter was adopted, committed to helping bring about change and freedom to many African countries and restore the dignity of African people.
But the origins of the OAU were difficult in fact. The idea almost collapsed before it could get off the ground because of ideological differences.
This episode will look at the origins of the OAU and why it failed...

Organization of African Unity
African correspondent Horace Jenkins interviews Alassane Dramane Ouattara, director of the political department of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), at its headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Ouattara speaks on neocolonialism and how higher education abroad conflicts with local culture. He also accuses the great powers of failing to exert pressure on the Union of South Africa to change its racial policies.

How was the Organisation of African Unity formed and why was it formed?
When most African countries got independence from the European colonisers, they observed that one very important thing was for them to be united.
The attempt by some leaders in Africa to create a united organisation was witnessed by divisions. This was mainly based on different affiliations that individual African countries had. There was the affiliations based on colonial orientations, political ideologies and other things.
This brought about the division of African independent countries into three groups. They were Monrovian Group, Casablanca group and Brassaville group.
These groups were focusing on different engagements and interests.
Base on the activities of some African leaders, unity was achieved. This led to the establishment of the Organisation of African Unity on May 25th, 1963...

The Organisation of African Unity (OAU; French:Organisation de l'unité africaine (OUA)) was established on 25 May 1963 in Addis Ababa, with 32 signatory governments. It was disbanded on 9 July 2002 by its last chairperson, South AfricanPresidentThabo Mbeki, and replaced by the African Union (AU).
Aims
The OAU had the following primary aims:
To co-ordinate and intensify the co-operation of African states in order to achieve a better life for the people of Africa.
To defend the sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of African states.
The OAU was also dedicated to the eradication of all forms of colonialism and white minority rule as, when it was established, there were several states that had not yet won their independence or were white minority-ruled. South Africa and Angola were two such countries. The OAU proposed two ways of ridding the continent of colonialism and white minority rule. Firstly, it would defend the interests of independent countries and help to pursue the independence those of still-colonised ones. Secondly, it would remain neutral in terms of world affairs, preventing its members from being controlled once more by outside powers.
