New Partnership for Africa's Development (Nepad) CEO Dr Ibrahim Mayaki has been appointed interim CEO of the Africa Peer Review Mechanism (APRM), a forum through which African Union (AU) partners share best practise policies and standards that lead to political stability, high economic growth, sustainable development and economic integration.

Established in 2003 under Nepad, the APRM is an instrument to which AU member States accede voluntarily by ratifying the AU declaration memorandum of understanding adopted in Durban in July 2002.

Liberian President and APRM chairperson Ellen Johnson Sirleaf announced the appointment at the recent AU Summit, in Equatorial Guinea, adding that Mayaki would steer the affairs of the APRM secretariat for the next six months as it embarked on the process of integration into the AU.

In his address to APRM staff on Friday, Mayaki said his primary function would be to support the secretariat in putting management systems in place by the time the new APRM CEO was appointed in January 2015.

He also paid tribute to the “significant” results produced thus far by the “highly professional and specialised” staff at the secretariat.

“Some of these results have been used effectively by Nepad in some of its programmatic work,” he commented
