Olaf Scholz - President Bola Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu on Sunday received the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

VerseNews gathered that the two leaders are expected to explore ways of fortifying the bilateral relations between the two countries.

Olaf Scholz who arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International in Abuja, the nation’s capital at about 2:20pm Nigerian time, was received by Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, alongside another top Nigerian government official.

The chancellor, who is on a two-day visit to Nigeria, is said to have been accompanied by a delegation of high-ranking German business people including Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of some of the highest-valued companies in the country as well as by a cultural delegation.

The German leader will also hold talks with government officials and players in the private sector during his stay in Africa’s biggest economy.

This is the third major visit of Chancellor Scholz to Africa and his first visit to Nigeria since the inauguration of President Tinubu’s administration on May 29, 2023.
