ANC presidential hopeful Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma believes "Radical Economic Transformation" should sweep through the entire African continent.

She said: "Can you believe it the whole African continent is generating energy that is the same amount as just one European country - Spain." This was changing but not fast enough, she went on: "We cannot do things we want to do without enough energy we must change this."

Peace

For "radical economic transformation" in Africa to be achieved, peace on the continent was imperative. "Decision is that we must work hard to silence the guns in Africa by 2020. This does not mean there will be no conflict but it must be dealt with through dialogue not the barrel of a gun," she said.

Women

But for all the above to be achieved, women and the youth must be at the centre, said Dlamini-Zuma. "Africa has a big population of a billion-plus and young and therefore drivers of this programme towards prosperity must not exclude women and youth," she said.
