President Muhammadu Buhari will tomorrow leave for Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to attend Monday’s inauguration of Prime Minister, Abiy Ahmed, for a second five-year term in office.
At the ceremony, President Buhari will deliver a goodwill message, and thereafter attend a State Banquet in honour of visiting Heads of State and Government.
He will be accompanied by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, and the Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency, Ambassador Ahmed Rufai Abubakar.
A statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, says that President Buhari is expected back in Abuja on Tuesday.
Prime Minister Ahmed secured another term in office, following the victory of Ethiopia’s governing Prosperity Party in the country’s parliamentary election of June 21.
In his earlier congratulatory message to the Prime Minister, President Buhari had assured that Nigeria will continue to support the unity and territorial well-being of Ethiopia and all African States.
