Africa Day is an annual commemoration on 25 May 1963 of the founding of the Organization of African Unity (OAU).

Historical Background
I am not here to correct that dense information that has filled your minds and contained your feelings, and even if I wanted to do that, I do not have the energy to do so.
So I will suffice by saying are you ready to listen to me as well, even though my merchandise is mixed; do you accept that I tell you what no one else has brought you in the past centuries, do you really want to listen to me to learn the truth of things, so that you may realize in these lines, some of the roots that have been hidden from existence.. So welcome to the world of the living, the world of the dark continent.
When we talk about Africa as a whole, there is no doubt that all assumptions of good and evil come to mind, and this is very natural for the mind of the poor human being who was created as nothing and God taught him after he was ignorant. It is natural for him to think whatever he wants and think whatever he wants however he wants. But the real shame is that he accepts everything that comes and goes, and accepts the news as it is reported without examination or verification. Wasn’t he given a mind to think, ponder and reassure himself about what befalls him? This mind is the most important and only difference between him and animals. There is nothing new that I can add or invent, but there is always one thing that I believe in and am certain of. It is that I am one of the sons of this continent, despite my weak condition and lack of ability, I cannot help but be its son and its blood runs through the veins of my body. With all due respect to the rest of the continents in general and especially those in which there are Muslim countries, my property, lineage and origin are mine and I have more right to them than anyone else. It is true that history has taught us throughout the ages that civilizations complement each other, and they are like a chain attached to each other, and that no individual or society can live alone without needing and benefiting from others, but what confuses and amazes me is that
Africa Day Launch Date
Five years later, on 25 May 1963, representatives of thirty African nations met in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, hosted by Emperor Haile Selassie. By then, more than two-thirds of the continent had gained independence, mostly from European imperial powers. At this meeting, the Organisation of African Unity was founded, with the initial aim of promoting the decolonization of Angola, Mozambique, South Africa and Southern Rhodesia. The organisation pledged to support the work of freedom fighters, and to remove military access to colonial powers. A charter was drawn up that aimed to improve living standards across member states. Selassie exclaimed, “May this decade of union last 1,000 years.” The charter was signed by all those present on 26 May, with the exception of Morocco.
At that meeting, Africa Freedom Day was renamed Africa Liberation Day. In 2002, the OAU was replaced by the African Union. However, the renamed Africa Day continued to be celebrated on 25 May in connection with the formation of the OAU. Africa Day commemorates the founding of the African Union on 25 May 1963. Today, the leaders of 30 of Africa’s 32 independent states signed the Basic Agreement in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. In 1991, the African Union established the African Economic Community, and in 2002, its successor, the African Union, was established.

The South African Football Association was not invited. The conference discussed the progress of the liberation movement on the African continent, but also demonstrated the determination of the African people to free themselves from foreign domination and exploitation. Although the United African Congress had been working toward similar goals since its inception in 1900, this was the first time such a meeting had been held on African soil. This meeting called for the establishment of an African Independence Day; …to demonstrate the progress made by the liberation movement year by year and to demonstrate the determination of the African people to liberate themselves and assert themselves abroad. “The meeting is known for laying the foundations for subsequent meetings of African heads of state and leaders during the Casablanca Group and the Monrovia Group until the founding of the African Union in 1963.
