Their discussions focused on strengthening Nigeria’s trade integration agenda, expanding industrial capacity, and mobilising investments to support sustainable growth across the continent.

Day two of the Fair also featured the Trade Forum, Arise Industrialization Day, Global Africa Day, and the CANE Auto Forum, each underscoring Africa’s increasing role in shaping global supply chains, deepening intra-African trade, and attracting transformative investments.Speaking after his engagements, the Honourable Minister reaffirmed Nigeria’s commitment to reforms that create a competitive and enabling environment for trade and enterprise. He emphasised that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s policies are positioning Nigeria as a hub for value-added production and as a driving force for the continent’s economic integration.
