The primary objective of the Pan-African movement was to

  1. establish trade unions across Africa
  2. promote unity among people of African descent ✓
  3. expand European colonialism in Africa
  4. create a common currency for African countries
Explanation

Pan-Africanism began among Africans and people of African descent abroad. Leaders like W.E.B. Du Bois, Marcus Garvey and later Kwame Nkrumah wanted them to unite, fight racism and end colonial rule.

It was a political and cultural movement. It was not about trade unions or a common currency.
