The president who will depart Abuja today, November 24, 2022 will also attend the launching of French version of the Book entitled ‘‘Muhammadu Buhari: The Challenges of Leadership in Nigeria’’, as well as inaugurate the ‘Muhammadu Buhari Boulevard’, named after him by the Government of the Republic of Niger.

According to a statement by presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, the naming of the Boulevard and launch of the French version of the Book, written by John Paden, a Professor of International Studies at George Mason University, northern Virginia, United States,  on Thursday precedes the AU Summit on Friday, November 25, 2022.

He said President Buhari is expected to deliver his National Statement at  the African Union Summit on Industrialisation and Economic Diversification, meeting under the theme “Industrialising Africa: Renewed commitment towards an Inclusive and Sustainable Industrialisation and Economic Diversification.”

Shehu said the High-Level Summit, being convened as part of the Africa Industrialisation Week annual commemorative activities, is expected to adopt a Declaration, highlighting the importance of industrialisation and economic transformation in the continent and how to make progress in that regard.

“The 20th of every November is commemorated as the Africa Industrialisation Day, adopted by the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the Organisation of African Unity in July 1989, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia,” he said.

Meanwhile, the presidential spokesman said the Extraordinary Session on AFCFTA is expected to adopt the Phase II Protocols of the continental free trade area as well as launch additional operation tools.

“Nigeria has continued to demonstrate a high level of commitment toward the full operationalization of a pan-African free trade area that will create a single market for goods and services, liberalise and facilitate the movement of investment and business people across the continent.

“On July 7, 2019, Nigeria signed the AfCFTA agreement in Niamey during the  12th Extraordinary session of the Assembly and launch of the operational phase of the trade deal.

“The country ratified its membership of the AfCFTA on November 11, 2020,” he added.

President Buhari will be accompanied by the minister of foreign affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama; minister of defence, Major-Gen. Bashir Magashi (rtd),  minister of industry, trade and investment, Adeniyi Adebayo; the minister of finance, budget and national planning, Zainab Ahmed; the national security adviser, Major-General Babagana Monguno (rtd) and the director-general, National Intelligence Agency, Ambassador Ahmed Rufai Abubakar. The president will return to the country on Friday, November 25.
