Britain referendum also known as "Brexit"

The United Kingdom will go to the polls tomorrow for a referendum, known as Brexit, which will decide if it stays or leaves the European Union. Twenty-eight European countries are members of the EU, a group that traces its roots back to the days after World War II. The idea was to use the organization to promote trade but it's turned into something much larger. As much as this will have implication or the European Union, analysts also suggest that if the vote is in favour for the UK to leave the EU, it will have consequences for Africa.
