PRESIDENT Mnangagwa left Harare this (Tuesday) afternoon destined for Senegal where he is expected to join about 20 African leaders at the Dakar II Feed Africa Summit.
The three-day summit kicks off on Wednesday ending on Friday and will see the President joining other African Heads of State, development partners and private sector financing leaders for the high-level discussion on road maps for achieving food sovereignty in the continent.
Running under the theme, ‘Feeding Africa: Food Security and Resilience’, the summit is organised by the African Development Bank (AfDB) Group and will be held at the Abdou Diouf International Conference Centre (CICAD) in Diamnadio, with just over 1 500 delegates expected to attend.
President Mnangagwa was seen off at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport by Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, Defence Minister Cde Oppah Muchinguri Kashiri, Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe, and other senior Government officials.
Part of the President’s entourage includes Minister of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development, Dr Anxious Masuka and the Minister of Finance and Economic Development Professor Mthuli Ncube.
