Former vice president Joice Mujuru is the new Head of the African Union Electoral Observation Mission (AUEOM) to the National Assembly Elections in Mauritius.
Mujuru is former vice president of Zimbabwe who was fired at the height of ZANU PF factional wars that rocked the party before the overthrow of late former President Robert Mugabe.
Since then, Mujuru has maintained a low profile specialising in farming.
Apparently, Zimbabwe is the current SADC chairperson, hence Mujuruโs appointment to head the AU mission.
