Uganda is fronting Dr. Namara, currently UNAIDS Resident Representative in Tanzania for the post of Commissioner Social Affairs at the AU, while Lady Justice Bbosa is a candidate for the post of judge of the International Criminal Court (ICC) whose elections will be held in December 2017. Justice Bossa’s name was submitted to the AU Commission for an early consideration to allow her adequate time to campaign.
