João Lourenço heads to Uige Province

Angolan President, João Lourenço, left Luanda on Thursday morning for the northern Uíge Province, for a two-day working visit to that region of the country.

At the Luanda military air base, Lourenço was bid farewell by the Vice-President of the Republic, Esperança da Costa, and members of government.

According to the programme of the visit, João Lourenço will lead a meeting of the Local Governance Council, with the participation of governors of the country’s 18 provinces and heads of ministerial departments.

The meeting will be held in two sessions, the first Thursday afternoon and the second Friday morning.

The Local Governance Council is the auxiliary body of the President of the Republic in the formulation and monitoring of the execution of governance policies of the State Administration at local level.

The president’s schedule includes meetings with local authorities and a visit to the Agriculture and Livestock Fair, which will showcase the region’s economic potential.
