ASDT Launches African Federation Treaty Framework v3.1 to Operationalise Continental Sovereignty

Africa's Sovereign Development Trust® (ASDT) has officially released the African Federation Treaty Framework (AFTF) v3.1. This 50-page jurisprudential treatise, now available on the CERN Zenodo Open Repository (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18365997), provides a technical and legal roadmap to resolve the systemic inefficiencies costing the continent €290 billion annually.

Addressing the €290B Sovereignty Gap

Despite a combined GDP of $3.4 trillion, Africa remains economically fragmented. Secretary General of the AfCFTA, Wamkele Mene, notes the continent is hampered by 42 distinct currencies and a global trade contribution of less than 3 percent. The AFTF v3.1 targets the $88 billion lost annually to illicit financial flows and the €70 billion infrastructure funding gap identified by the African Development Bank.

The AFTF Triple-Pillar Solution

The framework transitions from theoretical integration to technical execution through three core components:

1. OmniGaza® Blockchain: A €100 million quantum-resistant infrastructure. It facilitates 100,000 transactions per second with two-second finality. The platform has already demonstrated a 65% reduction in corruption for a €276 million Waste-to-Energy project in Nigeria by using automated, milestone-based funding.

2. Ndege MoneyTM: A digital currency backed by the African Rare Earth Mineral Fund (valued at $23.7 trillion). It aims to slash remittance costs from nearly 9% to under 1%, returning an estimated €9 billion annually to African treasuries.

3. United African Defence Force (UADF): A unified security architecture modeled on successful international facilitation protocols. It seeks to mitigate the €150 billion in preventable security costs that currently de-value infrastructure portfolios.
Unlocking Domestic Wealth

A primary goal of v3.1 is the activation of $2.1 trillion in "locked" African capital-including pension funds and sovereign wealth. ASDT analysis suggests that a mere 5% shift in pension asset allocation would inject $17 billion annually into critical energy and transport projects.

Governance and Access

Domiciled in the Seychelles, the framework utilizes a tripartite governance model to ensure transparency. It includes Africa's Sovereign Development Trust® (beneficial owner), The Ndege Group® Nominees Limited (operations), and an independent
Protector with veto authority.
