Angolan President João Lourenço on Wednesday invited President Bola Tinubu to the regular bilateral and multilateral consultations of African leaders aimed at tackling common challenges across the continent.
Lourenço sent the invitation through his envoy, Téte António, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Angola, in Abuja.
The message was made available to newsmen by the Institutional Communication and Press Services of the Embassy of Angola in Nigeria, Benin and Niger.
The message has to do with the regular bilateral and multilateral consultations of the leaders of the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC), and ECOWAS regions, as well as the common challenges on the continent.
“Lourenço is inviting his counterpart Tinubu, to participate in the III Edition of the Pan-African Forum for the Culture of Peace and Non-Violence-Luanda Biennial, taking place from Nov. 22 to 24.
“Adopted in 2015 at the 24th Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union (AU), the Biennial of Luanda will take place under the theme: “Education, a culture of peace and African citizenship, as tools for the sustainable development of the continent.
“It intends to contribute to the implementation of the “Action Plan for a Culture of Peace in Africa, a collaboration between the Government of Angola and UNESCO,” Lourenço said.
