President Paul Kagame on Thursday, May 16, issued a rallying call to African business and political leaders to work closely, together, noting that the more the continent is united, the more productive its engagement with partners will become.
The Head of State was speaking at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Africa CEO forum, where he joined more than 2,000 delegates including visiting Heads of State, leaders of international institutions, captains of industry, and investors for the two-day forum underway in Kigali.
“The more united Africa is, the more productive our engagement with partners will become. Integration, for Africa’s business community, is an opportunity to grow our markets, and become more competitive. Africa does not have to ask for a seat at the table,” Kagame said.
