Sambo to attend Burundi’s anniversary
The vice president, Namadi Sambo will tomorrow attend the 50th independence anniversary celebrations of Burundi.
A total of 17
countries, including Nigeria, gained its independence in 1960 making
2010 a year full of independence celebrations on the African continent.
Goodluck Jonathan
as a mark of solidarity has however, attended some of these
celebrations to keep an open link with the brothers and sisters of the
black race.
Mr. Jonathan
attended the Cameroun 50th anniversary celebration, as well as the
celebrations in the Republic of Benin. He also graced the 50th
anniversary celebration in Gabon just last week.
However, in what seems like a shared responsibility, the vice
president has also graced the celebrations of Cote d’Ivoire and Congo,
representing the president. The celebrations may be an opportunity for
many of the 17 countries to strengthen ties amongst itself.
