President Bola Tinubu has arrived in Nairobi, Kenya, ahead of the Africa-France Summit scheduled to open later on Monday.
The Airbus A330-200 conveying the President landed at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport at about 12:15 a.m. local time on Monday, the State House media office announced in a notice in the early hours of Monday.
Tinubu’s visit to Kenya, the second since July 2023, marks the second leg of a three-nation tour that began with a stop in France, where he had earlier met with global investors and pledged Nigeria’s commitment to fiscal discipline and economic reform.
The Africa-France Summit, co-chaired by French President Emmanuel Macron and Kenyan President William Ruto, runs from May 11 to May 12.
Themed “Africa Forward: Africa-France Partnerships for Innovation and Growth,” the summit focuses on energy transition, green industrialisation, digital transformation, restructuring of global financing architecture and climate action.
