February 15, (THEWILL) – Djibouti’s Foreign Minister, Ambassador Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, has been elected new Chairperson of the African Union Commission (AUC).
Youssouf was elected on Saturday, at the 38th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union (AU)...
The disagreement erupted after Paul Ibe, one of Atiku’s media aides, said the former Vice President would temporarily restore petrol subsidy if elected, and subsequently phase it out after giving the economy time to recover.
However, another aide, Phrank Shaibu, swiftly rejected that interpretation, describing it as “an unauthorised, imprecise and materially misleading characterisation” of Atiku’s position.
