THE African Connection Rally, in which Post and Telecommunications Minister Jay Naidoo participated, ended on Wednesday at Cape Agulhas — the southern tip of the continent — after a 22-day drive through Africa. It was met by members of the Cape Agulhas and surrounding communities, as well as dignitaries from around South Africa. The rally was intended to “make Africa part of the 21st century”, Naidoo said, by emphasizing the need for “connectivity” in catalysing development.
