As a taste of the level of inclusion she strives to champion if voted as Chair of the African Union (AU) Commission, Dr. Pelonomi Venson-Moitoi continues to engage Heads of State and Foreign Secretaries across the African continent.

Having visited over 30 countries in person or through her campaign team, since the last AU Chair elections in June 2016 in Kigali, Venson-Moitoi’s campaign has also ensured she attended all major summits where African leadership convened. Here she has engaged widely, with as many as 15 Presidents of African countries in just the last weekend.

Most recently, Venson-Moitoi concluded a trip to Cote D’Ivoire, where she was welcomed by Ivorian President, Alassane Ouattara, at the Presidential Palace in the Plateau. Venson-Moitoi shared more with the President and her Ivorian counterparts about her candidacy and her ambitions for the AU and Africa at large should she be victorious.
