Morocco elected to AU’s advisory board against corruption

Morocco was elected on Friday in the person of Nadia Annouz, Vice-President of the National Authority for Probity, Prevention, and Fight against Corruption, as a member of the African Union Advisory Board Against Corruption (AUABC) for a 6-year term.

The election took place during the 45th session of the AU Executive Council held in Accra, Ghana.

Morocco’s candidate, Nadia Annouz, earned the member position reserved for the Northern Region on the AUABC with a large majority of 35 votes.

This election testifies to the model expertise of Moroccan profiles in the fight against corruption at national and continental level.
Morocco is represented at the AU Executive Council 45th ordinary session by a delegation led by Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.

During this session, foreign ministers of the AU member states are examining several reports, including that of the 48th ordinary session of the Permanent Representatives Committee (PRC) and the report on the activities of the AU’s 2024 theme ‘Educate an African fit for the 21st Century: Building resilient education systems for increased access to inclusive, lifelong, quality, and relevant learning in Africa’.

Several other issues are being addressed, including AU’s participation in the G20 and the African Union’s partnerships. The Executive Council is also expected to adopt the AU budget for 2025.
