President Goodluck Jonathan has met with Pope Francis and Monsignor Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State at the Vatican in Rome for talks.

The President will leave the Vatican for the Netherlands after conferring with the Pope and is scheduled to lead a high-powered Nigerian delegation to talks on Sunday with the Dutch Prime Minister, Mr. Mark Rutte and senior officials of the Dutch Government before the opening of the Nuclear Security Summit on Monday.

Other world leaders expected at the Summit include President Barrack Obama of the United States, President Francois Hollande of France, Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain and Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany.
