The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Amb. Yusuf Tuggar, has reaffirmed the Federal Government’s commitment to partner the private sector to ensure effective implementation of economic policies in West Africa.
Tuggar disclosed this during the virtual private-sector roundtable held in Lagos, as part of build-up to the West Africa Economic Summit (WAES) scheduled for June 20 to 21, in Abuja.
The minister explained that the WAES was not just about policy, but about practical solutions.
Tuggar said, “WAES is not just about policy, it is about practical solutions. Your voice will shape the outcomes.
“This roundtable marks a turning point in how regional collaboration is approached, with businesses at the heart of the vision.”
He urged interested persons and corporate organisations to register via www.waes2025.org.
He further encouraged frank conversations around trade barriers, infrastructure gaps and regulatory challenges limiting growth across the sub-region.
The event attracted top business leaders to discuss their roles in driving regional economic integration and shaping the agenda for WAES.
