The implementation will be a difficult journey. But all challenges are surmountable if both the public and private sectors collaborate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the public sector side, governments must support local <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/09\/01\/1-35m-women-have-benefited-from-fgs-entrepreneurial-programmes-since-2015-says-osinbajo\/\">entrepreneurs<\/a> to build scale and therefore improve productivity.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018This means providing incentives to encourage our businesses to formalise and comply with laid-down regulations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president explained that most of Africa\u2019s existing challenges ranging from security, economy or corruption can be traced to the continent\u2019s inability over the years to domesticate the production of its most basic requirements and provide jobs to its teeming and dynamic youth population.<\/p>\n<p>Noting that free trade must also be fair, Buhari said fairness can only be achieved when there is full compliance with regulations, especially those relating to rules of origin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe AFCFTA is for \u2018made-in-Africa\u2019 products and services. Africa must be a marketplace where no country is left behind,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we implement, we must ensure that we create jobs and enhance revenues for all parties. We must leverage on one another\u2019s strengths to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Buhari also called on businesses in Africa to key into existing regional value chains or build new ones, either to extend operations into the higher value segments of their industries or to satisfy the AfCFTA\u2019s rules of origin requirements.<\/p>\n<p>On Nigeria\u2019s participation at the trade fair, the president said his delegation is attending with \u2018\u2018full force\u201d, poised to take full advantage of the available opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018Let me assure you that Nigeria has come to Durban in full force to actively participate in this very important trade fair and take full advantage of all the opportunities it provides,\u201d Buhari said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have streamlined the country\u2019s participation under one roof to enable you access all the information you need.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also said the Nigerian economy has witnessed a turnaround under his administration<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs many of you are aware, in the past five years, Nigeria has made significant strides towards the diversification of her economy from an oil revenue dependent country to a nation with diverse revenue sources,\u201d\u00a0 he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were able to achieve this by putting in place fiscal, monetary and trade policies that support investments and investors in key sectors such as agriculture, mining, telecommunications and digital economy, banking and financial services, tourism, and manufacturing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Declaring that Nigeria is open for business, the president added that progress is being made in the reform of key institutions, the fight against corruption, as well as the ease of doing business in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Muhammadu Buhari has stated that the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) can provide the opportunity for a significant increase in trade among African countries by 2030.
