The 11th ILF is taking place alongside the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Illinois from August 19-22.
Organized by the National Democratic Institute (NDI) every four years since 1984, the forum gathers senior politicians and policymakers from across the globe to observe the American democratic process.
Obi said he was invited “along with two other eminent Nigerians, and about two hundred other distinguished political leaders from over 91 countries, including former Heads of Governments”.
“We were invited to participate in the 2024 International Leaders Forum (ILF) on the sidelines of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois, holding on 19-22 August 2024,” Obi wrote on X.
“I am honoured and grateful to Senator Thomas Daschle and the Board of NDI for the gracious invitation.”
Obi said the ILF offers leaders from Africa’s evolving democracies an opportunity to share their experiences and learn from others.
