Reformist Mubita Nawa is currently in the running for the position of Secretary General of International Police (INTERPOL), a highly prestigious role that holds significant global influence. With preliminary assessments scheduled for next week, Mr. Nawa faces competition from candidates representing the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Despite the tough competition ahead, Mr. Nawa stands tall on a foundation of integrity and a commitment to reform within INTERPOL.
As the director of administration for the Zambia Police Service, Mr. Nawa brings a wealth of experience and a passion for creating a safer world for all individuals. His candidacy aims to address the longstanding absence of African representation in the leadership of INTERPOL, highlighting the need for a more diverse and inclusive organization. If successful in his bid, Mr. Nawa plans to implement reforms within the executive committee and secretariat to ensure that Africa’s voice is heard and respected within the organization.
Mr. Nawa’s confidence in his candidacy is bolstered by his extensive background in international law enforcement, including previous roles at the Southern African Development Community, the United Nations, and Interpol. His expertise in policing challenges, coupled with his strategic leadership experience, set him apart as a strong candidate for the role of Secretary General.
With the backing of the Zambian government and widespread support from across Africa, Mr. Nawa has garnered significant momentum in his campaign for the INTERPOL position. The African Union’s endorsement of his candidacy further solidifies his status as the continent’s representative in the race for Secretary General.
Despite facing challenges such as limited resources and access to decision-making levels within the organization, Mr. Nawa remains steadfast in his commitment to bringing about change within INTERPOL. While his competitors may have advantages in terms of global connections and resources, Mr. Nawa’s determination and vision for a more inclusive INTERPOL set him apart as a candidate with a unique and valuable perspective.
As the preliminary assessments for the Secretary General position approach, Mr. Nawa is poised to make his case for reform and diversity within INTERPOL. By standing on a pedestal of integrity and a commitment to global safety and security, he embodies the qualities needed to lead the organization into a new era of inclusivity and effectiveness.
