Tinubu Arrives in Rwanda for African CEO Forum

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu arrived in Kigali, Rwanda, on Wednesday ahead of the 13th African CEO Forum, which is set to commence on Thursday. He was welcomed at the Kigali International Airport by Nigeria's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bianca Ojukwu, alongside Rwanda's Defense Minister, Juven Marizamunda, and other government officials.

The event, co-hosted by Jeune Afrique Media, is recognized as one of the largest annual gatherings of business leaders, investors, and policymakers across Africa, focusing on economic growth and investment opportunities in the region. This year's theme is "Scale Imperative: Why Africa Embraces Share Ownership." President Tinubu is expected to deliver a speech titled "Hold the Line: Nigeria's Reform Bet in a Fractured World," which will address Nigeria's ongoing economic reforms and the government's plans for growth despite global economic challenges.

His visit aims to promote Nigeria's role in regional cooperation and encourage stronger partnerships to support private sector development for long-term economic growth across Africa.
