African legislators meeting in Midrand, South Africa, have made a united call for reparations from former colonial masters, demanding justice for slavery, colonialism, and decades of economic exploitation. Speaking during the 5th Ordinary Session of the Pan-African Parliament, members urged Western nations to acknowledge the historical injustices committed against African people and offer compensation through financial reparations, the return of looted artefacts, and legal redress.
