On May 25 of each year, African countries celebrate Africa Day, which is an annual celebration. It represents the former African Freedom Day and the African Liberation Day on the anniversary of the founding of the Organization of African Unity (now known as the African Union).
“Africa Day” emerged from the challenge faced by the countries of the African continent to confront decades of plunder and colonialism, and its symbolism began and continued from the images that the continent experienced in its struggle to carve out its own identity.
On this occasion, the High Commission for Africa extends its congratulations to all the peoples and countries of the African continent, wishing progress in development and prosperity and hoping that security, peace, and stability will prevail throughout the world.
