South African minister blames Mzembi's UNTWO loss on lack of unity among African countries
On Wednesday, South Africa’s Tourism minister Tokozile Xasa blamed Walter Mzembi’s loss at United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) on lack of unity among African countries.
Said Xasa:
But the unfortunate part is that of the five candidates, there was a second candidate from Africa. Which means the vote from Africa was divided into two. I am trying to demonstrate something here. We won the first round with flying colours. We got 11 and I can tell you that the 11 was not constituted by the African countries. That I can tell you straight up, minister Mzembi was number one with 11 votes and the second candidate had eight, third seven and fourth three. I am not counting the fifth because just a day before the election, the second candidate had to be withdrawn by his country, Seychelles, as it had at first supported him. The damage had already been done.
FeedbackXasa said if Africa had been united, Mzembi would have won the elections.
