Abuja, Nigeria, March 25, 2026 (PMO) – Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis, Hon. Dr. Terrance Drew, delivered a forward-looking and deeply reflective address at the Afri-Caribbean Investment Summit, today, March 25th, in Abuja Nigeria, calling for bold, action-oriented engagement to strengthen ties between Africa and the Caribbean.

The Prime Minister highlighted the importance of visionary leadership in advancing this agenda, noting that efforts to deepen Africa-Caribbean relations may not always be immediately understood, but remain essential to long-term development and global positioning.

Dr. Drew underscored that the initiative to engage Africa at this level is grounded in a broader mission to reconnect a people linked by shared ancestry, history, and identity.

He further positioned St. Kitts and Nevis as an emerging bridge between Africa and the Caribbean, reaffirming the Government’s commitment to strengthening partnerships, expanding economic linkages, and advancing South-South cooperation.

Prime Minister Drew stressed that the moment calls for courage, clarity, and decisive action, as both regions work to shape a future defined by togetherness, prosperity, and shared progress.

The Afri-Caribbean Investment Summit continues to serve as a vital platform for dialogue, partnership-building, and the advancement of a more connected and collaborative Afri-Caribbean future.
