The inauguration, according to a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande, will take place on September 1 at the Ivoirian capital city of Abidjan.
It reads: “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 tomorrow.”
