Mahama Arrives In Egypt For AU Summit, Delivers Keynote

President John Dramani Mahama has arrived in Alamein, Egypt, to participate in the 8th African Union Mid-Year Coordination Summit and the inaugural Alamein Africa Forum, a high-level gathering of African leaders, policymakers, and investors focused on continental integration and sustainable development. The President touched down on Friday ahead of the weekend summit.

The AU Mid-Year Coordination Meeting serves as the principal forum for the African Union and Regional Economic Communities to align priorities and review progress on Agenda 2063. This year’s edition in New Alamein is expected to draw Heads of State, AU Commission leadership, and development partners to discuss trade, health, and economic transformation.

The President will deliver the keynote address at a plenary session on “Investing in Health: Manufacturing and Regional Value Chains,” where he will highlight health as a strategic economic sector and an opportunity for investment, manufacturing and regional value creation. Sources close to the presidency say he will make a strong case for local vaccine and pharmaceutical production.

President Mahama is expected to argue that Africa must move from dependency on imported health commodities to building resilient regional value chains, leveraging the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) to scale manufacturing, create jobs, and improve health security. His address will focus on Ghana’s experience in health infrastructure expansion.

Supporters have welcomed the President’s invitation as keynote speaker, describing it as recognition of his leadership on health and social investment.
