President has, on the occasion of the African Union (AU) Day, called for investment in educational initiatives to promote a deeper understanding of African history, culture and contributions to the world.

This, he said, was not a simple task but required courage, determination and a unified front.

The President appealed in a message to mark the 62nd AU Day, which is on the theme "Justice for Africans and People of African Descent Through Reparations".

The African Union (AU) is a continental body consisting of the 55 member states that make up the countries of the African Continent.
