Braimah also revealed that subsequent themes of the conference would focus on consular services, economic migration, diaspora remittances, investment opportunities, population growth, public health crisis, social capital, natural resources, tourism potential, development of infrastructure, etc.
  
Speakers for the conversation include Maj-Gen. Abiodun Role (rtd); Dr. Ikenna Nwosu; Toju Ogbe;   Dr. Reuben Abati; Femi Adesina.
