Just In: The VP Kashim Shettima Jets Out To Switzerland For The 2024 World Economic Forum

I left Abuja this afternoon at the instance of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to represent Nigeria at the 2024 annual meeting of the World Economic Forum scheduled to hold in Davos, Switzerland.

I will be joining other political and business leaders across the world at the annual Forum to discuss global socio-economic and development issues.

Top on the agenda for me, apart from the plenary session, is the launch of the Private Sector Action Plan for African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCTA) at a special session to be co-chaired by my humble self.

I will also hold high-level discussions with the Managing Director of IFC, Makhtar Diop and the Prime Minister of Vietnam, Pham Minh Chinh, among others.

Also on the sidelines of the annual meeting, I will chair a roundtable dialogue on Nigeria’s economic path. So also, attend a special session dedicated to building trust in the global energy transition programme.
