Zuma will be in Nigeria today for the inauguration of the
president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, his office said on Thursday.
According to a source, Zuma's trip will be a "working visit" and
besides Buhari's inaugurations, it will also give the two presidents
the opportunity to discuss issues of mutual concern.
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) urged the South
African President to stay away from Buhari's inauguration, following
the spate of xenophobic attacks and the way his government handled it.
The group furthermore threatened to storm the Nnamdi Azikiwe
International Airport, Abuja, should Zuma step into the country's
airport.
However, if the report is released as planned, Zuma will be fulfilling
presidential duties in Nigeria such as enhancing the "good" bilateral
relations between the two countries, and strengthening economic ties.
"President Zuma also congratulated the people of Nigeria for
conducting a peaceful, transparent, credible, free and fair election
as declared by the Independent National Election Commission of Nigeria
(INEC)."
Zuma will be accompanied by Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, Minister of
International Relations and Co-operation.
