She further commended her predecessor for leaving the house in good hands.<\/p>\n<p>The Ivorian was elected the AfCHPR President on September 5 September 2016 for a two-year term. Dr Or\u00e9 was elected for the first time as Judge of the Court in 2010 for a four-year term and was re-elected in 2014 for a second term of six years.<\/p>\n<p>He is the author of a Doctoral Thesis on \u201cProtection of Human Rights by the Community Court of Justice of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).<\/p>\n<p>His tenure at the Arusha based court had seen Tanzania and Rwanda withdraw from Article 34(6) of the African Charter\u2019s Protocol, a provision which States accept the Court\u2019s competence to receive cases from individuals and NonGovernmental Organisations. In his rejoinder, the outgoing African Court President expressed gratitude to the entire continent during his reign at the Arusha based court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI pledge my full support to the court even when working outside,\u201d he assured.<\/p>\n<p>The AfCHPR is composed of eleven Judges, nationals of Member States of the African Union elected in their individual capacity. It was established by African countries to ensure the protection of human and peoples\u2019 rights in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>It also complements and reinforces the functions of the African Commission on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights. It meets four times a year in Ordinary Sessions and may hold Extra-Ordinary Sessions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
