<abstract><p>This study focused on understanding the implications of Morocco’s readmission into the African Union (AU). Morocco was readmitted into the AU in January 2017 without any changes to the previous circumstances after its withdrawal from the AU in 1984. The discontentment of other countries such as Algeria, South Africa and Zimbabwe over Morocco’s readmission is also discussed. As part of the readmission requirements, Morocco was requested to relinquish its hold on Western Saharawi. The admission and readmission criteria and membership requirements should be well spelt and adhered to by all the AU Member States.</p></abstract>
