00:00In the heart of my beloved Africa, where the sun kisses the earth,
00:05a legacy of strength, wisdom and leadership unfolds.
00:09From the ancient pharaohs of Egypt, to the revered leaders of Mali,
00:16Queen Nzinga of Angola, a fierce warrior,
00:20who fought against colonial forces with unmatched courage,
00:24Yaa Asantawa, the courageous Queen Mother,
00:28who led her people in the War of the Golden Stool.
00:32These queens were champions of culture and education.
00:37Today, their spirit lives on, inspiring not just their realms, but people across the globe.
00:44Let us honour the legacy of African queens and kings,
00:48whose wisdom, strength and courage continue to guide us.
00:51Their stories shape our identity and our future.
