The President of Germany (Hoerst Kohler) also visited Lagos in 2008. His motorcade caused chaos on Victoria Island (I was trapped in the traffic jam).

jmoore:
German chancellor got executive powers and not the president. Therefore German chancellor is the head of state of Germany. Their president is like a ceremonial figure like when Nnamdi Azikiwe was a President while Tafawa Balewa was the Prime minister(head of state).

A little correction. The President is the Head of State, while the Chancellor is the Head of Government.

INTROVERT:
Whats the difference between a German president and German chancellor

The President is the Head of State (most of his functions are ceremonial). The Chancellor (just like a Prime Minister) is the Head of Government.
