Nigeria's President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will attend two bilateral summits in Saudi Arabia to discuss the potential benefits of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) agreement. The Saudi-African Summit will focus on economic ties between Africa and Saudi Arabia, including counter-terrorism, agriculture, and environment. The Arab-African Summit will focus on expanding infrastructure, particularly a new high-speed train network between the Arab League of Nations and the African Union countries. The United Nations Economic Commission for Africa predicts that the African market will surpass $29 trillion by 2050. Nigeria's Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, expects stronger economic connections and increased commerce and trade relations from the summits.
