Goodluck Jonathan, Paul Kagame, others to receive African Icon Award at the African Heritage Concert and Awards in Kigali, Rwanda

The African Heritage Awards will recognize outstanding achievements made by Africans in Business, Politics, Science and Technology among others.

The maiden edition of the African Heritage Concert and Awards organized to honor distinguished African personalities will hold soon.

The event will honor former president of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, former Tanzanian President, late John Magufuli, Rwandan President, Paul Kagame and a host of others on April 1, 2023, in Kigali, the capital of the Republic of Rwanda.

The African Heritage Awards and Concert will be a celebration and global recognition of outstanding achievements made Africans, including those residing in diaspora in Business, Politics, Philanthropy, Entertainment/Arts and Culture, Science and Technology, and Social Innovation.

According to its organizers, the event is intended to celebrate personalities of African heritage who have distinguished themselves through remarkable achievements across the globe.

Aside bestowing international recognition, the award event will focus on the critical importance of culture and leadership, which the organizers believe lies at the core of any shared advancement of socioeconomic and political development in Africa.

The Award will also cast a spotlight on individuals who, under challenging circumstances, have empowered their people and impacted their sphere of influence to pave the way for sustainable and equitable development.

The choice of the cosmopolitan city of Kigali to play host to the maiden edition of the African Heritage Concert and Awards, the organizers say, was premised on the many successes of Rwanda as a Country that has now elevated her, in many respects, as the pride and face of Africa.

The event is not free to attend but will be based on registration and invitation. Organizers say attendance is free for award recipients and their spouse’s but other attendees will purchase tickets in categories; Regular Ticket would be $100, VIP Ticket-$1000, and VVIP Ticket-$2000.
