In a statement signed by Shehu, Buhari in the course of this visit is expected to hold meetings with key members of the British political establishment and interact with some global institutions with stakeholder interest in the affairs of Nigeria. “General Buhari would hopefully give a talk at the prestigious foreign policy hub, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Chatam House, in London.”
Buhari had on Wednesday met with the ECOWAS delegation led by its president, Kadré Désiré Ouédraogo. The APC presidential candidate thanked the ECOWAS delegations for their concern and interest shown in the coming polls just as he assured them of necessary cooperation from him and his party.
