dc.description After 50 years of independence as a continent, Africa is yet to graduate from dependency, ignorance and poverty. Lack of proper and meaningful education is one of the strait forward answers given because Africa continue to be characterised by poor education facilities and remain to be a continent that has no education of its own and thus lagging behind in education development. As the result, education has had little contribution to Regional Integration in Africa (RIA), though it is the warehouse for skills and knowledge transfer for better labour movement in Africa. The paper argues for mainstreaming, enriching it with local content and harmonisation of education as a key aspects in facilitating not only labour and people movement but also other three pillars of integration and as way to curtail the developmental challenges. It concludes by cautioning the danger of promoting the foreign culture, content and dependency in integrating Africans.
