I applied as well. From their Faceboook page they haven't confirmed if a list of successful candidates has be released neither has successful candidates been contacted. They just stated the fact that selection was made on the 21st of September. Lots of people asked questions on the post on Facebook but no reply was given from AU, I presume they haven't concluded yet. They stated that training for the successful candidates starts in October, they didn't state a date though. @ Babacele, I can't rule out corruption but I beg to defer from your assertion, I know someone who applied 2 years ago, he didn't know anyone in The African Union, he was just a fresh NYSC graduate who had done basic developmental work during his NYSC days and he got selected, just like that! Let's just keep our fingers crossed. |
