The Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), will depart Abuja on Monday (today) to represent President Muhammadu Buhari at the swearing-in ceremony of Nigeria’s immediate past Agriculture Minister, Dr. Akinwunmi Adesina, as the President of the African Development Bank.
The inauguration will take place on Tuesday (tomorrow) in Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire.
It would be recalled that President Buhari actively supported the candidature of the AfDB president-elect in a keenly contested election conducted in May this year even before the Buhari presidency assumed office.
The Vice President will speak at the event and return to Abuja later on Tuesday (tomorrow).
