Vice President Kashim Shettima is to represent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the crucial International Development Association (IDA21) Heads of State Summit taking place today in Nairobi, Kenya.

Stanley Nkwocha, Senior Special Assistant to The President on Media & Communications  (Office of The Vice President) said in a statement on Sunday.

He said the high-level gathering, hosted by Kenyan President William Ruto, will see African leaders unite to call for an ambitious replenishment of the World Bank’s International Development Association (IDA) concessional lending arm.

VP Shettima who departed Abuja on Sunday to Kenya is expected to take a lead role in advocating for Nigeria’s vision of a transformative IDA21 financing package to accelerate development across the continent over the 2024-2026 period.

In the draft “Nairobi IDA Communique” to be considered at the summit, African heads of state outline urgent priorities for IDA’s next three-year funding cycle, including building human capital, creating jobs, enhancing energy and digital access, building climate resilience, and promoting sustainable growth.

While thanking donors for contributing $23.5 billion to the current IDA20 cycle, the communique states that this level of financing is inadequate to meet the massive investment needs.

It calls on “IDA partners/donors to step up and ensure a robust replenishment for IDA21.”

Vice President Shettima is expected to emphasize that partners like IDA will be critical to realizing Nigeria’s economic transformation agenda, with the country’s young population requiring substantial investments in sectors like job creation, energy access, and human capital development.

The Nairobi summit follows previous IDA gatherings in Abidjan in 2022 and Dakar last year where African leaders united to call for an ambitious IDA20 replenishment from donors. (vitalnewsngr.com)
