Today we commemorate Africa Day in honour of the creation of the African Union's (AU) forerunner ,the Organization of African Unity, which was founded on this day ,58 years ago. The idea at the time was to establish guidelines for and to facilitate strong relationships between independent African States.
The day has since been repurposed into a Pan African Vision of working towards "an integrated ,prosperous and peaceful Africa, driven by its own citizens ,representing a dynamic force in the international arena". As we are celebrating the day, we recognize the role that the African Union has played in marking this continent a better place for all who live in it.
"There is no Africa without its people , there is no development of Africa without people of Africa ,there is no African transformation without its people."
On this day ,I wish all people around the cornerstones of Africa many blessings. Let's continue working together for a future that's builds on the resilience and beauty of our shared heritage ,promise of our youth ,and love for multicultural South Africa.
