Our Story

Join AWỌ and Afriicionado for an exhilarating celebration of Africa Day

A remarkable three-day event! Prepare for an extraordinary homage to Africa, spanning three unforgettable days filled with cultural immersion. From enlightening panel discussions to lively outdoor festivities, come together with us to pay tribute to the beauty, diversity, and strength of the African continent. Let's celebrate Africa Day with flair and unity, embracing its profound heritage and global impact.

Don't overlook this chance to participate in a jubilant commemoration of Africa's history, present, and future!

The history of African Day dates back to May 25th, 1963, when leaders from 30 independent African states signed a charter in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, establishing the Organization of African Unity (OAU). The OAU aimed to promote change, freedom, and independence across the continent. In 1991, it established the African Economic Community, and in 2002, it transformed into the African Union. Since its inception, the OAU and later the African Union saw the addition of more member states, with South Africa becoming the 53rd member in 1994.
