Terrorism: Jonathan, Other African Leaders To Meet In Nairobi

President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan will travel to Nairobi tomorrow to

participate in a meeting of the African Union's Peace and Security Council

scheduled to hold in the Kenyan capital on Tuesday.

The Nairobi meeting, which is a follow-up to talks by President Jonathan

and other African leaders at Pretoria, South Africa in May this year on

joint action against terrorism, will receive and consider the report of

the Chairperson of the African Union Commission on Terrorism and Violent

Extremism in Africa.
Deliberations at the Nairobi Summit and the adoption of the African

Chairperson's Report by President Jonathan, President Uhuru Kenyatta and

other participating Heads of State are expected  lead to more

collaborative actions by Nigeria and other African countries to rid the

continent of acts of terrorism and violent extremism.

The President, who will be accompanied to the Nairobi Summit by the

Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Dr. Nurudeen Mohammed, the National

Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd.) as well as other advisers and

aides will return to Abuja at the conclusion of the meeting on Tuesday.
