President Muhammadu Buhari will begin a weeklong official visit to Saudi Arabia and Qatar on Monday, and hold a special prayer for Nigeria before returning to the country. Femi Adesina, special adviser to the president on media and publicity, announced the president’s trips in a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday.
The statement said Ibe Kachikwu, minister of state for petroleum and group managing director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), will accompany the president, who is expected to hold talks with Saudi authorities on stability in the price of oil.
“Before going on to Doha, the president will also visit Medina and Mecca to pray for greater peace, prosperity and progress in Nigeria,” the statement read.
“President Buhari, who will be accompanied by a high-powered Federal Government delegation, including the Minister of State (Petroleum) and Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, (NNPC), Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, will first fly to Riyadyh for talks on Tuesday with King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and senior officials of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
“Ongoing efforts by Nigeria and other of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to achieve greater stability in the price of crude oil exports are expected to be high on the agenda of discussions between President Buhari and the Saudi Monarch.
“Crude oil prices and market stability will also be on the front burner when President Buhari goes on to Doha on Saturday for talks on Sunday with the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.”
Adesina said in Qatar, Buhari will meet with top businessmen and seek for his istration.
“The president is also scheduled to meet with leading Saudi and Qatari businessmen in Riyadh and Doha, and invite them to his istration’s efforts to revamp the Nigerian economy by taking advantage of the great investment opportunities currently available in Nigeria’s mining, agriculture, power supply, infrastructure, transportation, communications and other sectors,” the statement read.
“President Buhari’s other engagements in Saudi Arabia include meetings with heads of international financial organisations and multilateral associations.”

The forex being wasted on his junketing is of more use to us now than his prayers.

He should sit his ass back home, allow Kachikwu and other ministers handle necessary discussions in his stead or what's the need of having ministers /ambassadors.

I have 2 things to say

1...Muslim prayers don't mean shiit to me...you might as well be tryna move a mountain with a bee, that's how effective I think praying to The Moon god is.

2...We all know he's actually going to pray for his cows not the citizens of Nigeria right?

When will Buhari visit Vietnam because we are also expecting him since he is on the verge of becoming the most travalled president Nigeria has had.

We voted for a president who would bring change and not a junketeer

Buhari is takin the GEJ route to leadership and we all kno how that ended. Btw, i hope the president is spendin the naira abroad,or he's buyin the same rate students are buyin. U cant be preachin austerity and be busy gatherin airmiles on taxpayers money.

You will know buhari has lost it when he is going to Saudi Arabia for a week to pray for Nigeria. He should look for ways to shore up our economy by taking practical macro and micro economic decisions and appoint good technocrats to salvage our falling naira


Our President is confused
