World Liberty Congress members, Tanele Maseko, Carine Kanimba, Gladys Hlatywayo, Bobi Wine, William Amanzuru, Tendai Biti, and Leopoldo López, participated in the event “The Platform for African Democrats”, hosted by Brenthurst Foundation and WLC, in Cape Town.
Tendai Biti, WLC member from Zimbabwe, highlighted that the “fight for freedom
is not a revolution. It is evolution.” Also, Carine Kanimba, elected member of the WLC Executive Council, mentioned that “fighting misinformation with misinformation should not be the strategy of freedom fighters. You must always be on the side of truth.”
World Liberty Congress is a non ideological global alliance, that’s why our Secretary General, Leopoldo López, emphasized that the cause for democracy precedes ideological affiliations. “It’s about democracy vs autocracy. Ideology is a luxury for democrats.”
The Platform for African Democrats will help to strengthen the alliance of activists, political parties and organizations committed to reverse the autocratic trend in the region, and WLC will be an active part of it.
