The Kenyan delegation to the 11th Ministerial meeting of the African Union Committee of Ten (C-10) in Algiers, Algeria, was led by Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, H.E. DR Musalia Mudavadi.
During his speech, H.E. Dr. Mudavadi restated Kenya’s stance on the need for a unified voice to promote Africa’s shared stance on UN Security Council changes.
He identified as a historical injustice that needs immediate repair Africa’s underrepresentation in the non-permanent category and absence of representation in the permanent category of the UN Security Council, the body tasked with preserving international peace and security.
According to him, Africa has to be prepared and willing to seriously examine all options, both strategically and pragmatically, in order to guarantee that the reform process acknowledges and prioritises the continent’s quest.
With a deep understanding of the political, historical, and global dynamics, Africa hopes to enhance her interactions with other Member States, interest groups, and regional groups by articulating the Common African Position on the reform model.
Kenya’s permanent envoy to the AU, Ambassador George Orina, together with senior officials from the Kenyan Embassy in Algeria, accompanied the Prime Cabinet Secretary.
