This is the time for action. The Summit should be action oriented to be successful. The call should be directed principally to the leaders of Africa attending the Summit to agree to financial contributions to establish a drug manufacturing facility and to create a research center to study the causes of aids and seek drugs manufacturing as doses to prevent aids. Anything short of this is rhetoric. There is no need for showmanship and speeches - just to indicate concern for the problem.
Practical actions is needed.
Positive Action is needed to prevent this ailment from the continent. It has been stated that the enormity of the problem has forced African leaders to organize the Summit to forge a common front against the disease. Africans are watching to see what practical solutions will come out of this Summit if not another Resolution. It is time for Africans and African governments to know that the destiny of Africa is in its own hands. We cannot go - a begging for foreign assistance.
