| President Paul Kagame (L) welcoming Benin's President Patrice Talon |
Benin's President Patrice
Talon announced on a visit to Rwanda this week that Africans visiting his
country will no longer require visas.
BBC
Africa Live report continues:
It
was perhaps no coincidence that he made the announcement in Rwanda, given
that President Paul Kagame is a strong advocate of the police, which he
says will be brought in by 2018.
"Africans
visit the rest of the world but not African countries. My dream is to create a
relationship of exchange & tourism," Mr Kagame said during the Benin
leader's visit.
Ghana
announced the same policy in March, in what appears to be turning into a trend
towards easing bureaucracy to encourage more travel within the continent.
