SOLIDARITY
The Steering Committee of the All-African Peoples’ Conference has decided that the Third of August is to be observed as a day of solidarity for the populations of the Portuguese colonies. The observances of such a day was called for the recent Tunis Conference. Announcing the Steering Committee’s decision to a reporter of Radio Ghana, The Secretary-General, Mr. Abdoulaye Diallo made a solemn appeal to all political organisations, Trade Unions, to All men of goodwill, and to states and governments to observe this day. It would serve as a symbol of solidarity, not only for those patriots massacred on the third of August last year at Bissau in so-called Portuguese Guinea, but also for all struggling peoples. Mr. Diallo described the Portuguese colonies in Africa as “undoubtedly the most oppressed on all the continent.”
