Kenya's Raila Odinga makes his remarks during the launch of his bid for the African Union Commission Chairmanship candidate at State House, Nairobi on August 27, 2024.
Intellectual curiosity overcame an instinctual aversion to watch the African Union Chairperson debate dubbed Mjadala. All three candidates had good stage presence, were well spoken, and dignified.
All three were conversant with the myriad of problems facing Africa. On their part, the moderators were eloquent and gracious. From a presentational point view, Mjadala was efficient and well-choreographed.
