Buhari Meets Joe Biden At With House
The President, Muhammadu Buhari met with United States President Joe Biden at the White House, Washington DC, on Wednesday.
The meeting, also attended by other African leaders, was on the sidelines of the US-Africa Leaders Summit which started on Tuesday, December 13.
The US-Africa summit, which began in 2014, is the biggest international gathering in Washington since the COVID-19 pandemic and the most substantial commitment by a US administration to boosting its influence in Africa for almost a decade.
The summit, according to the US government, “will demonstrate the US enduring commitment to Africa and will underscore the importance of US-Africa relations and increased cooperation on shared priorities.”
Buhari departed from Abuja on Sunday to join other African leaders for the summit aimed at rebooting US relations on the continent in Washington DC.
Earlier on Wednesday, Buhari took part in the US-Africa Business Forum (USABF) hosted by the US Department of Commerce.
Before returning to Nigeria, the Corporate Council of Africa will host Buhari and the Nigerian delegation at a US-Nigeria business and investment roundtable.
The president is expected back in the country on Sunday, December 18.
