Episode #85

(Season 5; Ep.2):  

AfroDemocracy(5): Unpacking & Demystifying the 27th African Union Summit

In the second edition for the month of August and first foray into our series on AfroDemocracy , we want to use the show to revisit the noteworthy 27th African Union Summit.

Remarkable in the Summit’s outcome of retaining the incumbent South African Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, it set a precedent for another reason -- the fact that it would be the West African bloc under ECOWAS that caused disruption of business-as-usual. ECOWAS’ dissatisfaction with the calibre of the candidates caused a significant spanner in the works, giving vent to new dynamics within continental governance.

Our interviewee is Mark Amaliya, who is a governance expert at the Mutatio Institute. He has featured on the show twice already in Season 3.
