African nations' envoys attend Africa Day celebrations

New Delhi, May 26 (UNI) Envoys of different African nations, who earlier announced their boycott of ‘Africa Day’ celebrations in the national capital over the killing of 29-year-old Masonda Ketada Olivier and later withdrew it, today attended the Africa Day function following strong assurance from the External Affairs Ministry.
The ICCR hosted the Africa Day function in the national capital with the “India-Africa: Bound together with a cultural performance", African cuisine, African films, a week-long African exhibition and a seminar.
“India and Africa have always enjoyed warm and cordial relations of close friendship and partnership. We have worked shoulder to shoulder on such important issues as freedom from colonialism, apartheid, trade and development issues. Our leaders shared similar vision of freedom and development and enjoyed great rapport,” said Ambassador C Rajasekhar, Director-General ICCR.
