Does Buhari Turn His Policy Away From The UK?

President Muhammadu Buhari will leave Nigeria on September 14 for a three-day state visit to the European country.

President Buhari is pictured with other top leaders during the G7 summit in Germany.

The visit to France will afford Buhari to hold discussions with his French counterpart, Francois Hollande, on the war against terror and two-sided ties between the countries.

French president was the first foreign leader to invite Buhari for a state visit briefly after he won the presidential poll last March.

Presidency sources said Buhari’s route and his team would be disclosed this weekend before he leaves for France.

Hollande has played an essential role in the war against Boko Haram in Nigeria, and hosted a meeting last year of member countries of the Lake Chad Basin Commission, which improved the cooperation between Nigeria, Chad, Cameroun and Niger in the fight against the insurgency.

Both leaders will, among other issues, be expected to exchange visions on the progress made so far and further support that could be given to Nigeria to end the terrorism.
