The meeting, which was held in Lagos on Tuesday, was a component of Gates’ current trip to Nigeria to talk about important development and health projects.
Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa and the founder of the Dangote Group, was also present at the ceremony when President Tinubu presented Gates with the medal of honor, according to photos from the occasion.
