ILORIN, Nigeria, June 25, 2026 - The Kwara State Executive and the Nigeria Governors' Forum have captured an unprecedented diplomatic milestone following the formal election of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq as the President of the Forum of African Regions (FORAF). Held during the assembly sessions in Tangier, Morocco, the continental election positions Nigeria at the vanguard of subnational development strategies.
The pan-African statutory body operates with a strict mandate to accelerate socioeconomic modernization, deepen institutional decentralization, and transform regional administrations into prime catalysts for continental integration. Governor AbdulRazaq will steer the specialized governance matrix alongside elected vice-presidents representing Cameroon, Morocco, Kenya, and South Africa.
The new president emphasized that deploying trans-continental infrastructure corridors and synchronized transport links is an absolute prerequisite for neutralizing geographical trade barriers. The forum has finalized technical blueprints to support intra-African trade expansion, aligning localized master plans with the overarching goals of the African Continental Free Trade Area framework.
