President Obama to host President Buhari at White house July 20th
But my question is,when is Obama going to visit Nigeria? It seem incredible that after
more than 6 years as President of America,Obama still has not visited Nigeria,the most populous country in Africa! I'm beginning to think a Nigerian man must have stolen Obama's girl friend at a point in his life,since our men are notorious for that,lol..
A statement from the White House reads
On Monday, July 20, President Obama will host Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari at the White House. The visit will underscore the United States’ longstanding friendship with Nigeria, our commitment to strengthening and expanding our partnership with Nigeria’s new government, and our support for the Nigerian people following their historic democratic elections and peaceful transfer of power.
President Obama looks forward to discussing with President Buhari our many shared priorities including U.S.-Nigeria cooperation to advance a holistic, regional approach to combating Boko Haram, as well as Nigeria’s efforts to advance important economic and political reforms that will help unlock its full potential as a regional and global leader. In addition to hosting President Buhari at the White House, the United States will welcome President Buhari’s senior advisors for consultations with U.S. counterparts and other events aimed at building on the strong U.S.-Nigeria relationship.
