Thabo Mbeki African School of Public and International Affairs: Time for Africa to again blow its horn
The kudu horn is recognised as one of several traditional ways of summoning distant villagers to attend a community gathering in Africa. Crafted from this basic construct of a kudu horn, came the vuvuzela, a modern day version if you will. Well celebrated at the 2010 World Cup soccer, the vuvuzela gained international recognition and soon became the symbol of African football something the world has never forgotten.
