In the present work, it is shown that the problem of the accelerating expansion of the Universe can be directly solved by applying Einstein geometrization philosophy in a wider geometry. The geometric structure used to fulfil the aim of the work is a version of Absolute Parallelism geometry in which curvature and torsion are simultaneously non vanishing objects. It is shown that, while the energy corresponding to the curvature of space- time gives rise to an attractive force, the energy corresponding to the torsion indicates the presence of a repulsive force. A fine tuning parameter can be adjusted to give the observed phenomena.
