Governance and human rights activist Undule Mwakasungula says Malawi’s election into the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) with the highest votes among African countries is pleasing and a source of national pride.
In a statement, Mwakasungula said the development serves as an affirmation of the country’s commitment to human rights.
“Appointment as a UNHRC member provides Malawi with a platform to influence global human rights policies,” said Mwakasungula.
According to Mwakasungula, the high number of votes Malawi received among African countries enhances Malawi’s diplomatic capital.
