President Muhammadu Buhari will embark on a two-day working visit to the Kingdom of Morocco on Sunday.

Garba Shehu, spokesman of the president, stated this in a statement on Saturday, saying his principal was invited by King Mohammed VI.

He disclosed that the two leaders would have an interactive session on socio-economic matters affecting their countries following prior engagements in December 2016, during the king’s official visit to Nigeria.

“In Rabat, discussions will focus on strengthening existing agreements on the fertilizer industry, education cooperation, the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline project and establishing a basic chemical platform to harness Nigeria’s vast natural gas resources and support Morocco’s diammonium phosphate industry,” the statement read.

“It is noteworthy that following the signing of a collaboration agreement between Nigeria and Morocco in December 2016 to revive the abandoned Nigerian fertilizer blending plants, 14 plants have been revitalized so far under the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative; with a total capacity of 2.3 million MT of NPK fertilizers.

“The president will be accompanied on the trip by governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi state, governor Abubakar Badaru of Jigawa state and other senior government officials.”
