Raila, the bros and battle for AU chieftain in times of climate change, debt and war
The next AU chair will come to office weeks after Trump has been sworn in for a second run, after a spell in the cold, having lost his re-election bid in 2020.
Following the December 9, 2016 debate among the candidates for the African Union Commission (AUC) chairperson position, another one occurred on Friday, December 13.
With the withdrawal of candidates days ahead of the debate, it left Kenya’s veteran opposition figure and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, Djibouti’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mahamoud Ali Youssouf, and Madagascar’s Foreign Affairs Minister Richard Randriamandrato (all men) to face off.
