Abstract

The African-Egyptian relations have gone through a new dimension after June 30th, 2013revolution and the assumption of President Abdelfattah El Sisi of the Presidency in June, 2014, since he paid special attention to combating corruption at both the national and regional levels. On the sidelines of Addis Ababa summit in June 2017, His Excellency, the President signed the African Union’s Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption, which was ratified in July, 2017. This convention is considered the fundamental legal document in the African continent for combating corruption and promoting transparency and accountability all over the continent. The AU Member States adopted this convention during the second regular session of the Conference of Heads of States and Governments, which was held in Maputo, Mozambique, on 11 July 2003. The convention came into effect on 5August 2006 after 30 days of depositing the instrument of ratification by the fifteenth Member State. To date, the Convention has been signed by 49 Sates and ratified by 45 States, about 80% of the 55 Sates Member in the African Union.
