He’ll be delivering the keynote speech at the 34th annual Africa Peace Award dinner, an event dedicated to honoring individuals promoting peace and unity across the continent.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg! President Boakai is also scheduled to participate in a town hall meeting with local Liberians, reinforcing the importance of community connection and dialogue. With such a busy agenda, it’s clear that his visit isn’t just a formality; it’s a chance for meaningful interaction and inspiration for both the Liberian citizens abroad and their roots back home.
