The fifth edition of the Nation Media Group’s annual Kusi Ideas Festival will be held in Botswana capital, Gaborone, in December this year.
Botswana President Mokgweetsi Masisi, after meeting with a delegation from NMG led by board chairman Wilfred Kiboro this week, said the event is crucial for Africans to “take control of their narrative and position the continent in the global arena.”
The delegation comprised NMG chief executive Stephen Gitagama, non-executive director Wangethi Mwangi, head of external affairs Clifford Machoka and corporate affairs manager Kinya Gitonga.
President Masisi said the festival will provide a platform “to drive the continental agenda through pan-African collaborations, knowledge-sharing and the use of media platforms.”
This year’s edition will be held under the theme “The Road to Agenda 2063,” reviewing the continent’s progress on the African Union’s Agenda 2063, which was adopted in January 2015 as a blueprint for Africa’s economic transformation.
