The Deputy Speaker of the 54th National Legislature, Cllr. Jonathan Fonita Koffa has once again been invited by the African Leadership Organization, publishers of African Leadership magazine to as one of its “distinguished speakers” for the Global Africa Partnerships Forum, which takes place in London in December, 2023.
In a Facebook post, the African Leadership Magazine stated that it is “Honored to have Hon. Cllr. J. Fonati Koffa, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Republic of Liberia, as one of our distinguished speakers at the Global Africa Partnerships Forum 2023.”
The Speaking engagement, which will be Koffa’s second at an event organized by the magazine owners, comes after he previously called for a paradigm shift in the dreams and construct of the Pan Africanism Movement if the continent is to ever be unified and its people empowered, in a speech at the Africa Summit 2023 earlier this year.
The upcoming event, which is similar in purpose to the previous one, has been billed as a prestigious and influential gathering of global African stakeholders. It has been meticulously created to function as a catalyst for vital partnerships, powerful alliances, and productive relationships that will impact the African corporate and political landscape.
