Africa Day will be marked tomorrow (Tuesday 25 May) with an online discussion featuring prominent members of the African community.
Kwasi Kwarteng MP, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, and HE Mr T Melesse Desta, the Ethiopian Ambassador to the UK, are amongst those taking part.
