I joined the AfCFTA Central Coordination Committee meeting on Nigeria’s implementation of the Protocol on Trade in Services—building on the momentum from Zambia. Big kudos to HM Dr. Jumoke Oduwole. Under H.E President Tinubu, Nigeria is focused on reforms, jobs & trade.
I was part of the delegation led by the Hon. Minister of Trade at the AfCFTA Digital Trade Forum in Lusaka, alongside the MD of NEXIM and others. With Presidents of Zambia and Botswana present, the call was clear: Africa must move from talk to action and trade more within itself
