Nigeria Strengthens Africa’s Economic Future AT AU Summit

As African leaders converge on Addis Ababa for the 38th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union (AU) Heads of State and Government, Nigeria is playing a key role in shaping the continent’s economic agenda.

The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, has joined President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the summit, which is themed: Acceleration of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Implementation.
