Mzansi celebs celebrate Africa Day – Pictures
Under this year’s theme “Arts, Culture And Heritage: Levers for Building the Africa We Want,” the AU is celebrating 58 years of bringing African nations together.
Local celebrities shared on Africa Day what it means to them, using their various social media platforms.
“I owe my being to the hills and the valleys, the mountains and the glades, the rivers, the deserts, the trees, the flowers, the seas and the ever-changing seasons that define the face of our native land.
“The dramatic shapes of the Drakensberg, the soil-coloured waters of the Lekoa, iGqili noThukela, and the sands of the Kgalagadi, have all been panels of the set on the natural stage on which we act out the foolish deeds of the theatre of our day,” said former president of Mzansi, Thabo Mbeki.
I live in a part of the world where we wear all our colours at once with pride. Every day of the year. We are Afrika. #HappyAfricaDay,” shared actress and author Florence Masebe.
