Africa Law Practice International (ALPi) Limited has reinforced its dedication to championing the African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement (AfCFTA), pledging to advance regional trade, infrastructure connectivity, and economic integration.

As knowledge partners, capacity builders, and trade experts, ALPi continues to provide specialised training, business advisory services, and resource publications to support AfCFTA’s implementation.

Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Jan 31, Oyinkansola Badejo-Okusanya, a member of the Group, highlighted ALPi’s core practice areas, which include legal corporate and commercial advisory, dispute resolution, and professional services.

The press conference served as a platform to update stakeholders on ALPi’s achievements over the past year, outline its upcoming initiatives, and showcase its expanding footprint across Africa.

The Group, which comprises top legal and professional service firms across multiple countries—including Ghana, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, South Sudan, Namibia, Mauritius, and beyond—delivers innovative, client-focused solutions across various industries.

Madam Badejo-Okusanya stated that ALPi operates across diverse sectors such as energy and natural resources, technology, financial services, infrastructure, real estate, and African trade.

“Our integrated approach combines deep local knowledge with global expertise, enabling us to serve clients seamlessly across multiple jurisdictions,” she stated.

Built on the pillars of excellence, integrity, and collaboration, ALPi strategically bridges legal, financial, and trade expertise to help businesses navigate Africa’s evolving economic landscape.

Mr. Uyiekpen Giwa-Osagie, another key member of the Group, underscored ALPi’s role in facilitating infrastructure connectivity across Africa.

He cited examples such as advising on green real estate development in Nigeria and the Algeria gas pipeline project, which is expected to supply energy to Europe while strengthening regional cooperation.

“These are the kinds of projects we are pushing because they align with our vision to drive the African dream and foster economic integration,” Giwa-Osagie noted.

He stressed the importance of reducing tariffs and enhancing infrastructure to bolster trade efficiency and economic development across the continent.

With its growing influence and commitment to AfCFTA, ALPi continues to be a driving force in shaping Africa’s trade future, fostering strategic partnerships, and enabling businesses to thrive in an increasingly interconnected marketplace.
