Meus caros concidadãos de África e da Diáspora,
Hoje celebramos o nascimento da Organização da Unidade Africana (OUA), em memória daquele dia histórico 25 de Maio de 1963, quando cerca de vinte (20) Chefes de Estado africanos criaram entusiasticamente esta organização continental em Adis Abeba.

Addis Ababa, 22 March 2021: The Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, continues to monitor the developments in Somalia ahead of today's planned National Consultative Forum meeting to resolve the electoral impasse.
While the Chairperson is encouraged by the arrival in Mogadishu of leaders from all the Federal Member States, as well as other stakeholders, he is gravely concerned at reports that the meeting could take place without the participation all the FMS Presidents.

Your Excellencies,
We are meeting at an unprecedented moment in the history of the African Union.
Countries and societies around the world have been shaken to their foundations by a deadly and devastating pandemic.
This pandemic has been a stark reminder of both our vulnerability and our interconnectedness as a human race.
It has also demonstrated the value of our Pan-African ideals of unity, solidarity and cooperation to fulfill our common destiny.
Fortified by our unity, we have stepped up to the challenge.
