Angolan President João Lourenço has invited President Bola
Tinubu to the third edition of the Biennal de Luanda.
Lourenço extended the invitation to his Nigerian counterpart
in a message delivered by Téte António, Angolan minister of foreign affairs.
The Biennale of Luanda – “Pan-African Forum for the Culture
of Peace” — is a joint initiative of the United Nations Educational, Scientific
and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the African Union (AU) and the Angolan
government.
The forum aims to promote the prevention of violence and the
resolution of conflicts by encouraging cultural exchanges in Africa and
dialogue between generations.
It brings together representatives of governments, civil
societies, the artistic and scientific community, and international
organisations.
The forum will be held from November 22 to 24.
“Lourenço is inviting his counterpart Tinubu, to participate
in the III Edition of the Pan-African Forum for the Culture of Peace and
Non-Violence-Luanda Biennial, taking place from Nov. 22 to 24,” the message
reads.
“Adopted in 2015 at
the 24th Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the
African Union (AU), the Biennial of Luanda will take place under the theme:
‘Education, culture of peace and African citizenship, as tools for the
sustainable development of the continent’.
“It intends to contribute to the implementation of the
Action Plan for a Culture of Peace in Africa, a joint collaboration between the
Government of Angola and UNESCO.”
Antonio, who arrived in Abuja on Tuesday, also had a
courtesy meeting with Yusuf Tuggar, his Nigerian counterpart.
