In a deeply moving and symbolic procession through the historic Door of No Return, participants from the United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, Haiti, France, and the Benin Republic embarked on a sacred journey to reconnect with their ancestral heritage. With reverence and reflection, they stepped forward—rekindling ties to the Motherland and forging bonds that transcend time and distance.
This powerful experience not only honors the memory of those who came before but also ignites a renewed sense of hope, identity, and shared prosperity for generations to come. It weaves a lasting spiritual and economic connection between Africa and its global descendants—affirming unity, resilience, and a collective future.
“We are deeply grateful to Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa for her visionary leadership in facilitating this reconnection. Her legacy in championing the African Diaspora will forever be remembered in the pages of history,”
