As African Union Commission head, Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma fired a parting shot at US President Donald Trump blocking immigrants from seven majority Muslim countries – three of which are Africa.

The UN chief who was the summit says African borders remain open for those in need of protection when so many borders are being closed, even in the most developed countries in the world.
