My Dear  Sisters,

Today March 8, 2022, Africa joins the rest of the world to commemorate the International Women’s Day. 

 This celebration affords us an opportunity to highlight the lofty place women occupy in the universal conscience, their achievements in raising awareness in the world about the anachronisms against them, the execrable gender-bias and work resolutely together to achieve gender equality.

Your Excellencies, Dignitaries, Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen. All protocols observed.

I would like to start by giving my heartfelt thanks to the Mexico Pavilion Expo 2020 for partnering with the African Union and Dignified Story Telling to celebrate the authentic culinary delights offered by our peoples as we extend our  south-south collaboration to celebrating our cultural heritage in this themed event “Food from the Roots”
