President Macron Meets Buhari In Abuja (Photos) by Issafela: 4:53pm On Jul 03, 2018 |
French President, Emmanuel Macron, at the presidential villa in Abuja. The meeting is part of efforts to forge closer ties with English-speaking Africa. Macron, a 40-year-old former investment banker who speaks fluent English, has made a point of boosting ties with France’s former colonies but also improving trade with anglophone countries. Later today, he will also visit Lagos State where the state government has planned to host him at the New Afrika Shrine founded by Femi Kuti, son of music legend, Fela Kuti – making him the first president to enter the venue. The New Afrika Shrine located at Ikeja Lagos was built after the original Shrine by the musical maverick, Fela was burnt down in 1977. In Lagos, the agenda will be less traditionally diplomatic, with a focus more on the megacity of 20 million people’s artistic and cultural scene. The French President is expected to officially launch the African Cultural Season which takes place in France in 2020, at an event showcasing music, fashion and theatre. The choice of location — the Shrine concert venue of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti — has come as a surprise for many Nigerians given its association with the anti-establishment musician. “It’s a pleasant surprise that Macron chose to celebrate the cultural scene in Lagos,” said Steve Ayorinde, Lagos state tourism commissioner. “But it didn’t come as a shock, knowing that France is a very cultural country and knowing that Macron is a young president.” Meanwhile, the Lagos State Government has announced that there would be traffic diversion and restricted movement from 12 noon to 12 midnight on Tuesday around the Alausa, Afrika Shrine/Agidingbi axis.

Exchange pleasantries only, then ask him, if possible, what his effort to put am end to the incessant killings by the Fulani herdsmen are? Don't forget to reject all his advice... Edited.. Based on wheat I read from what the French president said, there is going yo be a conference between Nigeria, in Africa, and France, Europe. Biko, sir, what kind of conference of this?? |
