African Union Chairperson, Moussa Mahamat, has advocated the creation of an enabling environment to boost businesses and attract private sector investments.
According to him, Africa has embarked on a path of strategic market opening and enlargement through the establishment of the African Continental Free Trade Area , a market of 1.3 billion people. According to him, the project has huge potential for growth and would become a platform for deepening economic integration once operational.
“Again, it has also shown that it is possible when government creates enabling environment for the private sector to thrive,” Mahamar said.
