BREAKING: Prince Charles, Princess Camilla arrive Nigeria
arrived Nigeria.
They touched down at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja,
at about 1:34pm.
During his visit, Prince Charles would engage in peace-building
activities, including addressing the farmers-herders clashes.
The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Mr Paul Arkwright had
disclosed that the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall are
also expected to have an audience with President Muhammadu Buhari at
the Presidential Villa.
"The Prince of Wales will be looking at the causes, talking to people
who are working in this area and together, seeing if we can find
solutions and move on.
"Prince Charles has not been here since the past 12 years. 2006 was
the last time he was here and the Duchess of Cornwall, has never been
to Nigeria. So it is about strengthening ties, particularly
people-to-people ties.
"We want to ensure that through the Commonwealth, which is another
theme of the prince's visit, we develop links to develop relationships
whether in trade, environment or in education, all of which are
important to the future of the Commonwealth and to the future of
Nigeria," Arkwright had said.
