President Francois Hollande
French President Francois Hollande spoke with President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, on the telephone on Thursday and invited him to Paris for discussions on the expansion of trade between France and Nigeria.

A statement by the French Embassy in Abuja said the French leader congratulated Buhari on his success and noted the peaceful and fair electoral process which had enhanced Nigeria’s democracy.

Meanwhile, more government officials on Thursday trooped to the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to solidarise with President Jonathan, two days after he lost his re-election bid.

Those who met the President in his office included ministers, heads of government agencies and Peoples Democratic Party chiefs.

Others were Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom State; Governor Gabriel Suswam of Benue State and Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State.
