President Bola Tinubu will represent Nigeria at the 2026 Africa CEO Forum in Kigali, Rwanda. The forum, organised by Jeune Afrique Media Group and co-hosted by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), runs from May 14 to 15. The event's theme was not disclosed in the announcement released on Tuesday.
Tinubu's attendance follows Nigeria's active participation in previous editions, reflecting the country's engagement in continental economic discussions. The forum typically gathers business leaders, policymakers and investors to address Africa's economic challenges and opportunities.
Tinubu's trip to Rwanda signals Nigeria's continued push to position itself as a key player in Africa's economic space. If the forum delivers concrete commitments, it could pressure domestic reforms to match the continent's bold ambitions.
