Julius Malema, 44 other African parliamentarians sworn in as PAP members



South Africa’s opposition EFF leader Hon. Julius Malema was among the forty five (45) African parliamentarians who were sworn as members of the Pan African Parliament (PAP) at the opening of the Third Ordinary Session of the Fifth Parliament of the Pan African Parliament at the parliament’s seat in Midrand, South Africa on Monday.
Malema who was first sworn in as a PAP parliamentarian in May 2018, had to be sworn in again following his re-election into the South Africa’s Parliament in Maythis year and subsequent re-appointment into PAP.
This is because under PAP’s Rules of Procedure, a member standing for re-election in his or her home country following dissolution of parliament ceases to be a member of PAP and will have to be sworn in again if re-elected at home and re-appointed to PAP.
Other country delegations who were also sworn in today included Benin (5 members); democratic Republic of Congo (5 members); Madagascar (5 members); Malawi (5 members); Nigeria (4 members, one habitual absentee) and South Africa (5 members).
