Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 27579, member: 2262"] President Mahama plans a trip to Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso this weekend. A government official told the Ghana News Agency about these travel plans. The President heads to Bamako, Mali, on Saturday, March 8, then visits Niamey, Niger, on Sunday, March 10, followed by a stop in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The official explained that these visits continue President Mahama's efforts to strengthen friendly relationships with nearby nations. The trips matter because these three countries currently disagree with ECOWAS. His visits might help fix problems between these Sahel countries and the regional group. [/QUOTE]
