NOTIFICATION OF VACANCIES AT THE AFRICAN UNION

By a letter received on 10 July 2023, the Solicitor General of the Federation/Permanent Secretary forwarded to us a copy of the correspondence from the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, notifying of job vacancies at the African Union, which have been advertised on the African Union Career Website, and requesting us to give the same wide publicity.

The vacancies advertised include Principal Legal Officer; Head of Protection, Human Rights & Gender; Principal Sector Coordinator, amongst others.

I therefore invite all interested legal practitioners to visit the http://careers.au.int and follow the instructions for application.

Please note that this Notice is for information purpose only; to bring the existing vacancies to the attention of our members who may be interested. The employment is entirely the prerogative of the African Union. The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) will however provide any support where necessary or required by the employment process through the Employment Bureau of the NBA. Applicants may in this regard, contact the Bureau through Ms Grace Igyo (Head, Bar Services) on 0806 590 1348 or grace.igyo@nigerianbar.org.ng.

In the meantime, all enquiries should be directed to the contact provided on the website.

Please accept the President’s compliments and best wishes.
