President Buhari Advocates For African Single Market

The President is seeking for the establishment of a unified African market known as the Continental Free Trade Area (CFTA) to reduce poverty, enhance trade and provide job opportunities for the continent.

He stated this at the 30th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

He added that even though Africa may have missed the 2017 deadline for the establishment of the CFTA, there is still a chance to establish it by March this year.
