Nigeria – A delegation from the Rome Business School has met with the Nigeria-Italy Parliamentary Friendship Group (PFG) to discuss leadership development and exchange programs between both nations.
The meeting, which took place in Abuja on March 12, was facilitated by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abass, GCON, and hosted by the PFG Chairman, Hon. Afolabi Moruf Afuape.
Speaking on the engagement, Afuape said the collaboration aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda, which prioritizes sustainable development and economic growth. He emphasized the importance of such initiatives in enhancing knowledge sharing and capacity building.
“The exchange program will strengthen bilateral relations and provide Nigerian professionals and students access to world-class training,” he said.
The Rome Business School, a globally recognized institution specializing in management, entrepreneurship, and innovation, seeks to expand its partnerships with Nigerian institutions. The discussions also focused on fostering cooperation in key sectors that could drive economic progress.
Afuape expressed optimism about the impact of the initiative, noting that it would contribute to Nigeria’s development while reinforcing ties between the two nations.
