By Own Correspondent| President Emmerson Mnangagwa is in Addis Ababa to attend the 11th African Union Summit.

The summit will look at how the continental body can reduce its interdependency on the donor community.

The summit, which is currently underway will see the Africa Union Chairman President Paul Kagame of Rwanda give a blow by blow account on his findings after two years of exhaustive research and possible areas of generating revenue for the continental body.

Currently the SADC leaders are already meeting in Ethiopia to discuss about some of the recommendations by the Council of Ministers.

The Acting Foreign Affairs Minister Ambassador Cain Mathema attended the Council of Ministers meeting which finalised the agenda of the heads of state and government.

Africa is said to have the resources and the brains to catapult itself from underdevelopment to a more developed continent given the political will of its leaders with more responsibility going towards the 2063 target.

Also in Addis Ababa are Zimbabwean Ambassadors Tedious Chifamba from Brussels, Grey Marongwe from Kuwait and Albert Chimbindi based in Ethiopia.

So the AU Extraordinary Summit will see the AU sign posting its road to more independent from the donor funding.-StateMedia
