President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has stressed that African continent deserves an apology from the European countries that participated in the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

The President made the pronouncement during the first-ever Accra Reparation Conference, Mr. Akufo-Addo stressed: “It is time for Africa, thirty million of whose sons and daughters had their freedoms curtailed and sold into slavery, also to receive reparations”.

He continued that: “No amount of money can restore the damage caused by the Transatlantic Slave Trade and its consequences, which spanned many centuries, but surely, this is a matter that the world must confront and can no longer ignore.”

“And even before these discussions on reparations conclude, the entire continent of Africa deserves a formal apology from the European nations involved in the slave trade.”
