President Muhammadu Buhari and the Presidents of Algeria and South Africa as well as the Prime Minister of Ethiopia under the umbrellas of the “G4” have determined to reinforce the platform for the resolution of the various issues confronting the African continent.
The G4 Platform, an initiative of the Ethiopian Prime Minister, Abiy Ahmed, was set up to deliberate and proffer solutions as well as aggregating positions to ensure that the African Union carries its work forward successfully, efficiently and quickly too.
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity Garba Shehu, in a statement, said the African leaders made their position known at a meeting in Brussels, Belgium ahead of the 6th EU-AU Summit taking place in the country. They used the opportunity to talk over crisis areas on the continent with a view to coming up with practical and effective solutions.
Buhari and his colleagues stressed the need to reinvigorate the G4 within the African Union, AU as a platform for bringing African countries closer, coordinating actions and reactions for the whole continent in a more proactive manner and looking at how decisions in the AU could be better implemented.
