President Barack Obama continues his African diplomatic visit has he landed in Ethiopia this morning after ending a similar glorified visit to his Ancestral home, Kenya.
He will be the first American leader to visit Africa’s second most populous nation.
He touched down at Addis Ababa’s international airport in Ethiopia on Monday night, and he was greeted on the tarmac by Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desaleg, a group of young children, and other dignitaries.
According to the report:
The visit will include talks with the Ethiopian government, a key strategic ally but criticised for its record on democracy and human rights.
Obama will also become the first US president to address the African Union, the 54-member continental bloc, at its Chinese-built headquarters.





He will also hold talks with regional leaders on the civil war in South Sudan.
AU Commission chief  Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma hailed what she said will be an “historic visit” and a “concrete step to broaden and deepen the relationship between the AU and the US”.
