President Buhari To Travel To Johannesburg For Africa-china Forum by ELVISHOT: 1:57pm On Dec 02, 2015
President Muhammadu Buhari will be in
South Africa , Thursday to participate in the
Forum on China/Africa Cooperation
(FOCAC) taking place in Johannesburg,
December 4-5, 2015.At this forum President
Buhari will follow up his meeting with the
Chinese leader Xi Jinping which took place
on the sidelines of the United Nations
General Assembly meeting in November in
New York.


President Buhari had indicated to Xi Jinping,
the Chinese leader at the bilateral meeting in
New York that he wanted China to re-
commence stalled rail projects under new
terms that would see China providing nearly
all the financing required.


Of particular interest is the coastal railway
project stretching for 1402 kilometers linking
Lagos in the West with Calabar in the East; a
project that is expected to be financed with
12 billion U.S Dollars Chinese loan and
which will create about 200,000 jobs.
Another rail project that will be up for
renegotiation is the $8.3bn Lagos-Kano
standard gauge modernization project, of
which only a segment, Kaduna-Abuja has
reached completion stage.


President Buhari is also expected to discuss
ways of removing all obstacles in the way of
the 3,050 MW Mambila Power Station,
considered a strategic project which was
conceived in 1982 but has not taken off.
The Chinese President had informed
President Buhari of thewillingness of his
country to finance the whole project through
a special loan agreement.


The President, who will be accompanied by
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey
Onyema; Minister of Transportation,
Chubuike Amaechi; and the Minister of
Industry, Trade and Investment, Okechukwu
Enelamah, will return to Abuja on Saturday,
December 5.

Bwahahahahahaha...We were expecting that.
With this, he would ve visited abt 12 countries since his inauguration on May 29, when I read somewhere that he has only visited 3 states or so in Nigeria. So which one shud we call visit and which should we say is his residence.


I think it is valid to say we have a president that lives abroad but visits Nigeria once in a while.


Federal workers are still waiting for November salaries, Boko haram still ravaging everywhere, Biafra struggles exclating day by day, Fuel scarcity eating deep, the economy, pssssh... Among all these, our president can't sit and concentrate on a way out of all dis, he's just junketeering about.

There is surely an end...

It is more than a joke. We should be weeping. The man does not care. He is enjoying himself wella

Did he even come back from Malta to pick up fresh clothes, or they will send clean singlets and boxers from Aso Rock to him in South Africa?

I have criticized the president on his numerous journeys in the past but looking at this one I can't help but to accept it is very necessary.

Here, we're talking about China-Africa relationship and we know that China has got a lot of money to invest in Africa. So, if we fail to participate and be seen as serious partner looking towards benefiting from their huge investment, we may end up losing out in future investment from China.
