THE LONGEST AFRICAN VEHICLE CONVOY Concept


THE LONGEST AFRICAN VEHICLE CONVOY Concept


For 80 years, the continent of Africa has waited to host the 1st African World Cup. They say, patience is a virtue and in our different
locations and ages, we have waited collectively or individually for
80years, 80months, 80 weeks and 80days so far. Soon it will be
8days, 8hours 8 min. and 8seconds before the games start. What a
legendary activity, we the Africa people can do on our own as a free
people, a free generation advocating for unity, peace and dignity.

We the young people of SADC/Africa, we are going to mark our 8days
before the World Cup to tell the World that Africa has been reborn as a
free continent, and Africa has been reborn as free men. The blood that
was shed and suffering that was endured and still being endured today is a sign of
our willingness to move towards our own freedom and unity with those
willing to collectively build Africa with us.

A longest African vehicle convoy will start exactly 8days before World Cup
from Zimbabwe to South Africa, speaking clearly the issues African youth are
advocating. Telling the true African story through our arts, culture,
songs, dances, photography and filming.

The African vehicle convoy of unity, love, peace, celebration, joy and smart partnership is all about bringing stakeholders, investors and friends of Africa.
It is a platform to identify individuals, companies, organizations,
investors and developmental partners willing to stand up and identify
themselves with Africa especially in investing in the African women
and youth to fight poverty and unemployment through entrepreneurship.

We are inviting anyone doing proper business in SADC/Africa to join us on this African Unity, peace, friendship, love, dialogue, tolerance, business and
awareness convoy and global campaign against drug trafficking and
abuse, human and child trafficking, unfair trade practices, crime,
violence among other issues. The convoy will showcase the natural
beauty, heritage and cultures of Africa and its people, deal with
prejudices, enlighten people’s ignorance and develop an accurate
African story as seen in the eyes of its young men and women. Our
theme is “Unite and Tell the True African Story”.
