| Minister Walter Mzembi |
Tourism minister Walter Mzembi has been overwhelmingly re-elected chairperson of the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) Commission for Africa with a call to build a just society in which “humanity co-exist with nature”.
Cameroonian and Ivory Coast Tourism ministers became the new Africa vice-chairpersons.
Mzembi’s re-election enhances his chances to land the powerful position of secretary-general (SG) of the UNWTO when the organisation’s six regions namely — Africa, the Americas, East Asia and the Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and South Asia — vote to replace incumbent Taleb Rifai in China in 2017. He becomes a member of the UNWTO executive council for the next two years.
