Luanda - Musicians André Mingas, Teta Lando and Waldemar Bastos will be honoured posthumously this year as part of the Trajectory Project implemented by the Iron Palace.
The information was provided by the director-general of the Iron Palace, João Vigário, during a conference to take stock of the 2023 activities and present the 2024 agenda, held last Thursday in Luanda.
