  African Union summit: Continent leaders to meet and sign landmark free trade agreement, discuss looming migration crisis

  African leaders will meet on Sunday in Niger for the African Union (AU) summit, to sign a landmark free trade agreement and to discuss looming security and migration crises on the continent. Nigeria's chief trade negotiator, Ambassador Chiedu Osakwe, said President Muhammadu Buhari would sign the landmark agreement, 'opening Africa up to abundant opportunities'. The AU estimates that implementing the AfCFTA will lead to a 60 percent boost in intra-African trade by 2022.
