Mahamat said this while reacting to the travel ban on the Southern Africa countries at a news conference at the UN headquarters in New York on Wednesday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mahamat, who spoke to journalists after the fifth UN-AU Annual Conference, described the travel ban as stigmatisation which could not be justified scientifically or on the grounds of reason logically.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Chairperson, who addressed journalists in the company of UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres, said both multilateral organisations had condemned the unfair measures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThey are condemning a country (South Africa) for having been transparent because its experts have worked tirelessly to inform the international community of the emergence of new variants. It hasn\u2019t been scientifically proven that these types of measures are able to deal with this type of issue. It\u2019s clearly, as you say, an expression rather of a form of injustice\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cwith vaccines, with treatment, with debt service, with our will to allow African states to recover following the pandemic or during it, we saw the same type of treatment\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI think that now I\u2019ll take up the terms used by the Secretary-General. It\u2019s immoral to condemn Africa in that way. We are a world, a global world and we\u2019re faced and when facing an enemy like the virus, like COVID-19, humankind as a whole must go hand in hand to fight the virus because a man\u2019s life is man\u2019s life,\u2019\u2019 the Chairperson said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mahamat said the union had not seen active dynamic solidarity from the international community as a whole and that is to be regretted, noting that the union has seen it time and time again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cAs I was saying to the Secretary-General, we need to be collectively outraged as leaders in the African Union and as the United Nations. Our message to the world as a whole is that we need to keep a cool head. We need to follow the well-being of humankind as a whole\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe need to genuinely demonstrate greater solidarity and justice. That\u2019s the very least we can ask for, namely from our leaders, our political and social leaders.\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Similarly on Tuesday, Guterres had expressed deep concern over the restrictions imposed on travellers from southern African countries due to Omicron. The UN chief said people of Africa should not be blamed for the immorally low level of vaccinations available in the continent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He said they should not be penalised for identifying and sharing crucial science and health information with the world on Omicron COVID-19 variant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The World Health Organisation (WHO) has listed Omicron as a \u201cvariant of concern\u201d as a result of which countries around the world are now restricting travel from Southern Africa, where the new strain was first detected, and taking other new precautions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">WHO says it could take several weeks to know if there are significant changes in transmissibility, severity or implications for COVID-19 vaccines, tests and treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, says the travel ban on southern African countries, due to COVID-19 Omicron variant, is a form of stigmatisation against Africa.
