The African Union has appointed Nigeria’s Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, Bernard Doro, to represent West Africa on the Governing Board of the African Humanitarian Agency.
The appointment, according to a statement issued by the minister’s Senior Technical Adviser on Information Systems and Data Analysis, Dr Abimbola Fasanu, is for a three-year non-renewable term.
Doro’s nomination was endorsed by the West African regional caucus, coordinated by Senegal in its capacity as Regional Dean, and formally communicated by the African Union Commission.
He will serve on the board alongside Côte d’Ivoire’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, H.E. Léon Kacou Adom, who was also nominated to represent the region.
