Shettima to represent Presdent Tinubu At 2024 CHOGM

Vice President Kashim Shettima is leading Nigeria’s delegation to the 2024 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM).

In a statement by the spokesman of the Vice President,  Stanley Nwokocha, Shettima would join King Charles of England and other world leaders from 56 member countries at the first CHOGM to be held in the Pacific small island of Apia, Samoa from October 21 to 26.

The meeting will deliberate on the theme, “One Resilient Common Future: Transforming our Common Wealth.”

It said the theme will focus attention on how member countries can harness their strengths through resilience, unlocking potential, leveraging the ‘Commonwealth Advantage’, and fostering a connected, digital Commonwealth.

The statement added that at the meeting, Nigeria and other member countries will among other things elect and appoint the next Commonwealth Secretary-General.

Following the Agreed Memorandum on the Establishment and Functions of the Commonwealth Secretariat (revised 2022) and the principle of regional rotation, the next Commonwealth Secretary-General will come from the Africa Region with candidates from Lesotho, Ghana, and The Gambia.

The Vice President is expected to use the platform provided by the Commonwealth Business Forum to further attract investors to Nigeria, as global experts from businesses and the private sector convene to recommend and champion solutions to global challenges.
