SOUTH AFRICA CELEBRATES FREEDOM DAY

The Ambassador of South Africa to Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay, HRH Zenani Dlamini, hosted the country’s Freedom Day Celebrations at the Alvear Hotel on 27 April 2016. This year marks 22 years since South Africa’s historic elections that took place on 27 April 1994, which culminated into the coming into office of South Africa’s first democratically elected leader President Nelson Mandela, liberation struggle stalwart and iconic member of the ruling African National Congress (ANC).

The theme of this year’s celebrations is the South Africa Constitution, the highest law of the country, which was promulgated by President Mandela in 1996.
