President Kagame hosted to state banquet in Niger

President Paul Kagame has attended a banquet hosted in Niger hosted in honour of visiting African Heads of State and Government attending the African Union (AU) Extraordinary Summit on Industrialization and Economic Diversification.

The banquet was hosted by the President of Niger, Mohamed Bazoum in the evening of Thursday 24th November 2022.

Apart from Kagame, the banquet was also attended by the President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari; Umaro Sissoco Embaló of Guinea Bissau; Mokgweetsi Masisi of Botswana and the Chairperson of African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat.

The summit on Industrialization and Economic Diversification is taking place in Niamey, the capital of Niger.

It aims to highlight renewed commitment towards an Inclusive and Sustainable Industrialization and Economic Diversification.

President Kagame arrived in Niamey on Thursday 24th November 2022.

The Summit is convened as part of the Africa Industrialization Week annual commemorative activities.

Given the importance of industrialization and economic transformation in Africa, the 20th of every November is commemorated as the Africa Industrialization Day, adopted by the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the Organization of African Unity in July 1989, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

The Africa Industrialization Day provides an opportunity to key stakeholders to reflect on Africa’s industrialization by looking at how the continent can change its current status quo.

Since 2018, the Africa Industrialization Day has been commemorated with week-long events, marking a departure from the one-day tradition, and which affords more time to reflect and accelerate actions towards Africa’s structural transformation, as an enabler to meet the objectives of Agenda 2063, and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), 2030.
