There’s a folklore about a Lord Mayor of London, Dick (Richard) Whittington, who rose from poverty-stricken childhood with the fortune he made through the sale of his cat to a rat-infested country.
Today, the Vice President of Nigeria, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, who is looking for better business prospects for the country, received the present-day Lord Mayor of the City of London, Alderman Charlse Bowman, who led a delegation of business and investment interests from the United Kingdom to Abuja.
Did they talk about the cat?
