This year’s edition of the annual event will be held virtually as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
The event will be streamed online across several social media platforms including Zoom, Facebook and YouTube.
The event is billed to commence with a traditional symposium to examine topical issues affecting Africa.
Those expected to speak at the symposium include Arikana Chihombori, the former permanent representative to the African Union mission in Washington DC, Kweku Mandela and Dele Farotimi, lawyer and author.
The opening event, christened ‘Colomentality’, will be hosted by Vincent Magombe, a Ugandan media personality.
The event will also feature activities including ‘Dress like Fela Challenge’ festival which usually involves participants impersonating Fela Kuti with the winner expected to win a grand prize of N50,000.
