President Muhammadu Buhari will be in South Africa on Thursday to participate in the Forum on China/Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) taking place in Johannesburg, December 4-5, 2015.

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.

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 the willingness 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 theMinister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Okechukwu Enelamah, will return to Abuja on Saturday, December 5.

Good. Its only incompetent and lazy father will stay at home when things are not right. Good father will go any length to find solution to his problems concerning his house hold.

Lol... Waiting you want me to say? I should start castigating him because he is travelling around,looking for solutions all over the places?. Many of you thought he is happy to be travelling here and there abi? See if your house they burn and there is hope of getting solution outside, won't you go any length and look for the solution?.

Sounds like a very strategic trip. In the fullness of time, all the scattered dots will connect and the full picture will become obvious.

Whether there's sense in his presupposed trip or not... The only justification will be d end results...

Look at the illiterates who call themselves leaders of tomorrow commenting out of point above here!

This is a trip with huge potential benefits for Nigeria stating specific projects to be financed by China, yet children of hate and anger cannot hide their pain.

And the end result will be IMMEDIATE according to who?

Lalasticlala Seun Obinoscopy Mynd44 front page please.

This very time, I thrust full support to this trip.

It is a good and strategic one. If both the rail and Independent Power Project are achieved, with the loan plan to be financed fully by the Chinese govt, then I am ready to vote baba again in 2019.

Good one.

What again?

China recently set aside several billions of dollars for investment in Africa. The whole world is presently courting China for economic benefits, just recently, the Chinese president was in London and the red carpet treatment he received was overwhelming even as he promised several billions of dollars investments in the UK. Now if even world powers are courting China, why would anyone possibly think it is a bad idea for the Nigerian president to go meet him in SA to attract some of the planned African investment fund to Nigeria?.... You expect Nigeria to sit at home and attract investments even when other nations (including the UK) are hustling for handshakes?

Do you guys just oppose for the sake of opposing or is this really the true level of your intelligence being displayed here?
