These young individuals are dedicated to spreading the ideas of human dignity, individual and economic freedom and the ability to pursue one’s happiness without coercion.
Discussions will revolve around the recently signed African Continental Free Trade Agreement by Nigerian government, Regional integration, Drug policies, Free Speech, Rule of Law as well as cross – fertilization of ideas that promote freedom, a wider citizen access to information, limited government and shared experiences in growing the liberty network across the West Africa region.
