In November 2016, Pierre Salomon Mbella Mbella, an aeronautical engineer, will defend the Cameroonian colours during the election for the position of managing director of the Agency for Aerial Navigation Safety in Africa and Madagascar (ASECNA).

The information has just been revealed by the Cameroonian Minister of Transport, Edgar Alain Mebe Ngo’o, who specified that this compatriot, who currently works as Special Advisor to the MD of Asecna in Dakar, claims 34 years of experience in the safety and aerial navigation sector.

Created in Saint Louis, Senegal on December 12, 1959, ASECNA is an international public establishment. It is tasked with ensuring the safety and aerial navigation over an area covering 16,100,000 km2.

Which represents an area corresponding to one and half times the entire European continent.
