HER EVERLASTING LEGACY
“You must act as if it is impossible to fail.”
African Proverb
Africa has a rich history of female leadership- from queens and female chiefs to strong political leaders, all of whom have left behind successful legacies which have built the continent. .
Female pharaohs, such as Cleopatra and Nefertiti ruled ancient Egypt. Queen Nzinga was a warrior queen with an army made almost entirely of women, and became a barrier against enslavement of her Congolese people. In Kenya, Chief Wangu was the only female tribal leader who led her clan during the fight for independence in a time when the position was held exclusively by men.
Her Everlasting Legacy honours all these African female leaders of the ages, whose long-lasting impact have shaped the collective heritage of the continent and became the centre points of African legacy.
