 President Mohammed Buhari has arrived in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, to convey his condolences on the passing of President and ruler of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Halifa bin Zayed Hal Nayan. The President is scheduled to present the condolence and contrary letter to the new President of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Hal Nayan, and thereafter review the bonds of a long-lasting friendship between the two countries. The President in an earlier congratulatory message to the new UAE leader had reaffirmed Nigeria's cordial relationship with the country, noting that the cooperation between both governments have helped Nigeria in tracking down illegal assets and tracing terrorist funds. The President is expected back in Abu Dhabi on Saturday.
