The world’s most powerful leader will travel to Africa from February 15 to 21, according to a statement by the US embassy in Nigeria. They will visit Benin, Ghana, Liberia, Tanzania and Rwanda.
This trip will be an opportunity for the president to review firsthand the significant progress since his last visit in 2003, in efforts to increase economic development and fight HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other treatable diseases, as a result of the United States robust programmes in these areas.
The president will meet with President Yayi, President Kikwete, President Kagame, President Kufuor, and President Johnson-Sirleaf, to discuss how the United States can continue to partner with African countries to support continued democratic reform, respect for human rights, free trade, open investment regimes, and economic opportunity across the continent.
