The African Union Advisory Board against Corruption (AUABC) has announced the postponement of the 8th African Anti-Corruption Dialogue.
The decision to postpone the event comes amidst logistical challenges and intention to increase engagement.
"We aim to provide a platform for stakeholder engagement on advancing regional efforts to combat corruption and promote good governance across the African continent, "the statement said.
However, AUABC added that they will in return host a virtual event on July 11th, 2024, to commemorate African Anti-Corruption Day.

"We deeply appreciate the Government of Kenya's unwavering support in our efforts to combat corruption and promote good governance," said AUABC.
"We remain committed to rescheduling the event at a later date to provide a platform for regional dialogue on anti-corruption initiatives."
