Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Mabel Chinomona<\/b>, the president of the Zimbabwean Senate, began serving as the president of the African Parliamentary Union (APU) on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

She was handed over the reins by her predecessor Mohamed Ali Houmed at the APU\u2019s headquarters in Ivory Coast.<\/p>\n

The Parliament of Zimbabwe announced the development in a statement on its official Twitter handle yesterday. Read the Twitter post:<\/p>\n

Hon. M.M Chinomona, President of the Senate & President of the African Parliamentary Union, travelled to Ivory Coast on a working visit to the APU headquarters.<\/p>\n

The visit culminated in the handover of the leadership of the APU from H.E. Mohamed Ali Houmed to Hon. M. M. Chinomona.<\/p>\n

In her remarks, Senator Chinomona extended her gratitude to her predecessor for his \u201ccapable leadership\u201d of the APU over the previous three years, which was accomplished in the midst of exceptionally challenging conditions relating to the worldwide COVID-19 outbreak.<\/p>\n

The African Legislative Union (APU) was founded in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on February 13, 1976, with the goal of fostering cooperation among the parliamentary bodies of all African republics.<\/p>\n

APU is affiliated with the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU).<\/p>\n

APU holds an annual conference and other events to discuss issues of concern, share experiences and make recommendations to the African Union (AU) and other organisations. It also promotes parliamentary democracy and cooperation with other regions of the world.<\/p>\n

Chinomona was elected Chairperson of the Executive Committee of APU during the 44th APU Conference held in Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) on 9 and 10 November 2022.<\/p>\n
