On Tuesday 25 May, African governments would commemorate what is known as Africa Day .
The day (formerly known as African Freedom Day and African Liberation Day) is the annual commemoration of the founding of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) on 5 May 1963.
The organisation was later transformed into the African Union on 9 July 2002 in Durban, South Africa, but the holiday continues to be celebrated on 25 May. It is celebrated in various countries on the African continent as well as around the world.
This year s theme of Africa Day is Arts, Culture And Heritage: Levers for Building the Africa We Want.
The celebration however comes on a backheel of a number of issues; the Covid-19 pandemic having piled up pressure on the African economy.
