Vice President Kashim Shettima has departed South Africa for Luanda, Angola, where he is scheduled to represent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the high-level African Union-European Union (AU-EU) Summit, taking place from Monday to Wednesday.

The summit is a strategic engagement between African and European leaders aimed at strengthening mutual cooperation in critical areas such as economic development, regional security, climate action, technological innovation, trade, migration, and good governance.

Vice President Shettima’s participation signals Nigeria’s commitment to advancing its foreign policy agenda, especially in the areas of economic partnerships and peacebuilding efforts on the continent. His representation also comes at a time when global interest in Africa’s economic potential is growing, and Nigeria continues to position itself as a key voice in shaping the continent’s future.
During the summit, Shettima is expected to engage with several African and European heads of state, development partners, and private sector stakeholders. Discussions will focus on deepening AU-EU relations, aligning development priorities, and reinforcing democratic values and human rights across member states.

This marks yet another diplomatic assignment undertaken by the Vice President on behalf of President Tinubu, reflecting the administration’s collaborative approach to international engagement and regional leadership.
