African leaders will meet to discuss a report by 10 heads of state on the position the African Union should take on reforming the United Nations' Security Council, a spokesman said Sunday, according to AP. Sierra Leone's President Tejan Kabbah will present a report Monday on reforming the Security Council at a meeting of African Union heads of state in Addis Ababa, said Adam Thiam, spokesman for Alpha Oumar Konare, the African Union Commission chairman. Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, who is the African Union chairman; the presidents of Malawi, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe; and the prime ministers of Ethiopia and Algeria are also expected to attend, along with the foreign ministers of Egypt and South Africa, Thiam said.
