President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday met with his counterpart from the neighbouring Benin Republic, President Boni Yayi, in Abuja.

A statement signed by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, said both leaders attended yesterday church service together at the Villa Chapel before proceeding to the presidential residence for lunch and bilateral talks.

The statement added that the talks between the two leaders focused on issues relating to the strengthening of developmental cooperation between Nigeria and Benin Republic, including trade and economic relations.

Abati added that former President Olusegun Obasanjo worshipped with both Jonathan and Yayi at the Presidential Villa but did not participate in the talks between them.
