Of course it won't solve everything, but it would help in many aspects. Heck, for example trading agreements like in North America or in Europe, where they can avoid certain taxes/border fees, etc.
For fuck sakes, somebody from Congo cannot go to Democratic Republic of Congo, these divides need too be eliminated. The tension between Kenya/Somalia/Ethiopia would be a lot less tense, if they had greatly similar economical goals and had laws that encouraged trade amongst them, I'm pretty sure there would be less Al-Shabab crazies and whatever other terrorist organizations that seem to flourish there, because it would hinder the economical growth of these countries, so they'd take greater measures to deal with it.
Heck anything, to make things easier, these things don't get fixed overnight but simply laughing it off and throwing it aside because it doesn't concern you doesn't mean it's a bad idea, in fact it's something that is being talked about a lot throughout the african diaspora for a long time, and change is bound to happen eventually. So these are simply discussion points, as long as they sit down and discuss it that's all ready a great deal of work, and these things have to be done amongst themselves, for themselves.
But off course, Bjerknes, your only concern is about them looters and whatever racial tensions in your country, personally I don't care it's an american problem.
