Olusegun Obasanjo, former
Nigerian President has congratulated the newly sworn-in Zimbabwean President,
Emmerson Mnangagwa.
Obasanjo, while congratulating
the new Zimbabwean leader, expressed optimism that Mnangagwa will execute the
responsibilities expected of his new office with the greatest political acumen
he is known for.
The former president said this in
a statement he personally signed on Friday.
According to Obasanjo, “Your
world-acclaimed experience in business and legal profession, I am convinced,
will be an asset to be utilised effectively and efficiently to take Zimbabwe
out of political and economic doldrums that have imposed a heavy toll on the
Southern African nation of 16 million and thus bring about an accelerated
development of Zimbabwe’s economy and global economy at large.
“At the moment, Zimbabwe needs
the cooperation of the continent of Africa and cooperation of her friends
outside the continent for the advancement of the economic fortunes of your
great people and country.
“I am, therefore, of the strong
conviction that the excellent relations between Nigeria and Zimbabwe will also
benefit and blossom under your leadership.”
