President Bola Tinubu is set to depart France on Monday for Cape Town, South Africa, where he will co-chair the 11th session of the Nigeria-South Africa Bi-National Commission (BNC) alongside South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.

The BNC meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, December 3, 2024, will be preceded by a ministerial meeting on December 2 at the South African Parliament Building in Cape Town.

This was revealed in a statement on Sunday by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
