PTI London, September 16 It is the silence of the usually bustling and echoing 900-year-old Westminster Hall in London where Queen Elizabeth II's coffin is Lying-in-State that is most striking as thousands of mourners file past, including members of the Indian diaspora. The occasional muffled sobs become all the more poignant and enhanced in what is the oldest building of the UK's parliamentary estate, which has seen many historic events dating as far back as the 11th century. The mourners, many of whom have been on their feet for anywhere between five to eight hours in a queue extending over 5 km, are made up of the elderly and babies, some on wheelchairs and others accompanied by guide dogs.

The 20th anniversary of the AU also witnesses the launching of the Daylight Africa Scholarship. Claude Koudor, Political Advisor of ECOWAS who was speaking on behalf of the President of ECOWAS Commission, Dr Omar Alieu Touray and the ECOWAS Resident Representative in the country, said: It is an honour for ECOWAS to be invited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Gambians Abroad, in collaboration with the African Union Day Foundation, as special envoy to deliver a statement commemorating the 20th anniversary of the transformation of African Union from the Organisation of African Unity, and also to celebrate our brothers and sisters who are living in the Diaspora and are contributing tremendously to the political and social-economic stability of Africa. The ECOWAS Political Advisor thus expressed appreciation to the AU, UNDP, and African Diaspora based in New York City, USA for the laudable initiative of organising such kind of ceremony in The Gambia, saying: You made no mistake for organising such kind of forum in the country.
