New African, an African magazine, published in its December issue the list of the 100 most influential African personalities of 2022, in various fields of activity.
The Mozambican and Civil Society activist Adriano Nuvunga is one of the people considered by the publication as a tireless warrior against corruption.
The list published this year by New African is divided into several categories, including politics, business, civil society, press, religion and tradition, and environment, among others.
The magazine states that as a civil society activist, Adriano Nuvunga fights courageously against corruption in Mozambique. As director of the Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD), Nuvunga leads an organisation that focuses on democracy, youth, leadership and development, seeking change and transformation.
In the past, he has headed the Centre for Public Integrity (CIP), a civil society organisation fighting corruption and for transparency in Elections and Governance. Nuvunga is a lecturer in Political Science at the Eduardo Mondlane University in Maputo.
He has published articles that highlight the need for accountability in governance. Although he is the visible face of criticism against corruption and notwithstanding the dangers that such exposure poses, he remains a passionate advocate for integrity and Human Rights.
