President Tinubu has arrived in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil ahead of the 17th Summit of BRICS in Rio de Janeiro.
President Tinubu is attending the summit at the invitation of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva of Brazil, on the strength of Nigeria’s status as a ‘partner country’- a membership category short of full status.
The Partner status is higher than that of a guest country, as has been the case in the past. South Africa, Egypt and Ethiopia are African members of BRICS.
But without ad revenue, we wouldn't even be here. And we might not be here much longer.
