Plateau State Governor, Barr. Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, on Monday, joined the delegation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu who is on an official state visit to Brazil, after he received a special invitation by the president.
Mutfwang, who was not part of the official government
delegation when the team visited Japan last week, was among top Nigerian
government officials who received the President at the Air Base reception in
Brazil after he was officially invited to the high-profile engagement.
The Director of Press and Public Affairs to the Governor,
Gyang Bere, who disclosed this in a statement, being a part of the state visit,
Mutfwang will join Tinubu and other senior government officials in series of
bilateral discussions and the signing of Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs)
aimed at strengthening Nigeria’s relations with Brazil and boosting the
nation’s economy.
Bere said as part of the itinerary, the delegation is
scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with the President of the Brazilian Senate
at the National Congress, the President of the Chamber of Deputies, and the
President of the Supreme Federal Court and also participate in the
Nigeria-Brazil Business Forum, which forms part of a packed programme in
BrasÃlia.
He noted that apart from the national engagements, Mutfwang
will also use the visit to discuss investment opportunities with the Brazilian
government and business communities which will be to the benefit of Plateau
State in the long run.
Prior to this development, Plateau State was recently
selected as one of the six states in Nigeria to host the regional hub of the
Green Imperative $1.1 billion Project within the Nigeria-Brazil partnership,
marking a significant turn in agro industrialisation for the state and Nigeria
at large.
