Vice President Osinbajo Goes To Burkina Faso On Peace Mission

Six select group of West African leaders have been scheduled to meet today in Quagadougou, capital of troubled Burkina Faso in efforts to resolve the political logjam in that country.
The meeting today is said to be a follow-up to yesterday’s extra-ordinary session of ECOWAS leaders in Abuja in respect of the situation in Burkina Faso.
President Muhammadu Buhari, who hosted the Abuja summit would be represented at the meeting by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
The ECOWAS six leaders are expected to have talks with the leaders of last Thursday’s military coup in Burkina Faso.
Meanwhile, Vice President Osinbajo is expected to return to Nigeria later in the day.
