As we celebrate Freedom Month in South Africa along with four other countries celebrating their freedom in April, let us put economic prosperity, silencing the guns and gender-based violence and femicide atop the continent s agenda, writes GCIS director general
Phumla Williams.
April is a special month for Africa, as many nations on the continent celebrate their independence and freedom from colonialism.
In South Africa, April will forever resonate in the history of the nation as the month that ushered in the first democratic elections on 27 April 1994, which saw Dr Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela - popularly known as Tata Madiba - becoming the country s first democratically elected President.
