Sudan Events – Sumaya Sayed

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is in Africa, with President Frank-Walter Steinmeier expected to follow on Monday. Their talks in Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania and Zambia will focus on strengthening economic ties.

Scholz and Steinmeier will focus on Germany’s economic relations with countries linked to the reform of Berlin’s “Compact with Africa” initiative ahead of the November 20 meeting of African and G20 countries in Berlin.

Scholz is expected to follow up on this during talks with President Bola Tinubu. Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country, is ranked jointly with Egypt as Africa’s largest economy.
