Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The ministerial meeting of the African Union (AU) approved Angola’s proposal to amend number 4 of Article 22 of the organization’s Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption, which aims to reinforce the effectiveness of its Advisory Council for this purpose, through the extending the mandate of its members.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to a press release this Wednesday, the approval of the amendment to the Convention was made at the end of the ninth ordinary session of the ministerial meeting of the Specialized Technical Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs of the African Union (AU).<\/p>\n

The document states that the proposal will be submitted for consideration by the Executive Council of the continental organization, which precedes the Assembly of Heads of State and Government, to be held from the 14th to the 18th of February 2024, in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia).<\/p>\n

The session also recommended to the Executive Council the adoption of a decision requesting the African Union Commission (AUC) to continue to advocate for the ratification of the protocol relating to the Statute of the African Court of Justice and Human Rights (Sharm El Sheikh Protocol \u2013 2008) and the Malabo Protocol \u2013 2014, with a view to ensuring the threshold of ratifications necessary for its entry into force.<\/p>\n

On the sidelines of the aforementioned meeting, the eighth extraordinary session of the ministerial meeting of the AU Specialized Technical Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs was held, which considered the Draft Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the specific aspects of the right to nationality and the eradication of statelessness in Africa.<\/p>\n

At both events, the Angolan delegation was led by the ambassador to Ethiopia and Permanent Representative to the African Union (AU) and UNECA, Miguel Ce\u0301sar Domingos Bembe.<\/p>\n

The African Union Advisory Council to Combat Corruption (AUABC) was represented by its Vice-President, Angolan Pascoal Anto\u0301nio Joaquim.<\/p>\n
