Zapu's Africa Day message

24 May 2016 at 21:24hrs | Views

The 25th of May is a significant day in the life of every African. It signifies and reflects the aspiration of African to be liberated and break free from the bondages, shackles and chains of colonial bondage and neo-colonialism.

This is a day where Africans come together and unite against poverty, unemployment and abuse of one by another. This day unites all Africans in celebrating our diverse cultures and traditions. Therefore we must raise political awareness and consciousness around the world about the state of affairs in Africa and the struggles African face everyday

For many years now Africa day has always been known as the day where African and their needs are put into light .This dates back to 1963 when the OAU was formed in Ethiopia. This was the organization formed to tackle issues that affect African and their state of being

So we must all work together to pursue their objectives and build a better Africa. We can therefore say without fear of contradiction that Africa day derives its values from the message of Ubuntu that it carries. As citizens of Zimbabwe and as Africans we are challenged to renew our commitment to the kind of unity and solidarity that carried our forefathers to victory daring the subjugation of colonisation.

The brighter day is rising upon Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe belongs to this new and powerful period, The Zimbabwean people must possess common fundamental sentiments which are everywhere manifest, crystallised into one common controlling idea. The regeneration of Zimbabwe means that a new and reformed electoral system must be put in place.
