The African leaders have reiterated commitment
to focus on key priorities to ensure that the African
Union efforts are not dispersed by any member state, reports ITRealms.
The Ministers commitment, ITRealms gathered, will also enable a
clear division of labour between the AU and member states.
These were some of the outcomes from the
one-day between President Paul Kagame of Rwanda and Ministers of Foreign
Affairs in Kigali, Rwanda.
ITRealms
recalls that at the 27th African Union Summit held July 2016, member States of
the AU entrusted President Kagame with the mandate to lead the African Union
reforms to enable the Union to better meet its mission’s goal and truly serve
African citizens.
And in January 2017, the proposed reforms were
accepted by all Head of States and Governments. The reforms aim to make the AU
more efficient politically, operationally and financially, so that the African
multilateral organisation is better positioned to meet its mandate to member
states and African citizens.
According to sources at the meeting, by realigning
the AU institutions to deliver against these priorities and ensure that the
Union Commission structures, organs, and specialised technical agencies focus
on the agreed priorities.
Equally, the reforms will see to managing the
AU efficiently at both political and operational levels, to allow the members
to create an efficient and effective Commission staffed by the best African
professionals.
This would also strengthen the working methods
of the AU Summit to improve the quality and impact of decision-making whilst
ensuring the timely implementation of Assembly decisions; and
Just as Financing the AU and
sustainably to strengthen the African Union’s financial management and
accountability.
