Buhari
leaves for G7 summit in Germany
President
Muhammadu Buhari will leave Nigeria on Sunday morning for Germany.
According
to a statement on Saturday by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and
Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President will be traveling to Germany to attend
the G7 Summit that is scheduled to take place in Bavaria from June 7 to 8, 2015.
Shehu
said invitation to the summit was extended to Buhari by German Chancellor,
Angela Merkel, before he was inaugurated as President on May 29.
The
invitation is a clear indication of the international community’s willingness
to cooperate with the new government of Nigeria,” the presidential spokesman
said.
He,
however, explained that Buhari would not be participating in the main meetings,
since Nigeria is not a member of the G7 group.
He
added, He (Buhari) is in a group of seven other Heads of State who were called
in as guests.
He
will equally be holding key side meetings with some of the seven Heads of State
at the summit.
