African Union Extra Odrinary Session

The African Union 20th Extraordinary Session of the Executive Council was concluded this past weekend in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia where there were calls for strengthened commitment in pursuing the African Union institutional reform process. AU Commission Chairperson Moussa Faki Mahamat officially opened the Executive Committee and called on the need for member states to embrace the reforms as they would enhance the operations of the African Union Commission. Mr. Mahamat further expressed disappointment at the low levels of implementation of treaties that are ratified by member states. He said it was unfortunate that some countries were not domesticating some of the treaties that they were signatory too.He has since called on Member States to speak with one voice when they speak on international fora about issues affecting Africa.We are joined in studio by:• Corletta Wanjohi Channel Africa Correspondent • Emeritus Prof Shadrack Gutto Political Analyst UNISA
