dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the acceptance speech of African Union Heads of States from 2015 to 2019. The acceptance speech examined included Robert Mugabe (2015) , Iddris Debby(2016) ,Alpha Conde (2017), Paul Kagame (2018) ,and Al Sisi (2019). qualitiative method was used to explore and analyses the efforts made to consolidate democratization by AU Chairperson‟s Acceptance Speech and its correlation with development, historical instruments of the regional geo-political, ideological socio-economic discourses and political (ideological-views) manifestations and its implication on the democratization of the continent .In addressing the common view and variance asked in the research problem. The finding of the analyses in each of the acceptance of the heads of state indicated that the leaders have focused more on peace and security, the dichotomy of Us and Them, representation at UN, peace and security, youth, migration and youth. Gaps were further found on efforts towards democratisation because of the summit chairperson power is ceremonial and state have no intention of loosing sovereignty, less effort to widen common African media, priorities of the Heads of State more than what the continent needs.en_US
