  "summary": "President Bola Tinubu is set to lead a continental push to prevent Africa's mineral wealth from being exported as raw materials, as he chairs a high-level summit on critical minerals in New York next month. The Africa Minerals Strategy Group (AMSG) will convene the Third High-Level Roundtable on Critical Minerals Development in Africa, with the aim of changing the traditional extract-and-export model and moving African countries towards greater processing, manufacturing, and integration of mineral value chains. The summit, themed \"From Resources to Wealth: Continental Cooperation for Mineral Value Addition,\" will be held on September 21, 2026, in Manhattan on the sidelines of the 81st United Nations General Assembly.",
