Buhari In China's Forbidden city

President Buhari who is currently on a state visit to China, visited the Former Chinese Imperial Palace otherwise known as China's Forbidden city today 12th April. Here is a brief history of the forbidden city as written by Special Adviser to Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, after the cut.

The city was built from 1406 to 1420 in the reign of the Ming Dynasty Yongle Emperor. It served as the seat of power for 24 emperors, over the course of 491 years. And why is it called the Forbidden City? Because it was not just for anybody. Not for the hoi polloi, nor the flotsam and jetsam of society. Not for the proletariat, but only the privileged and dignified. The poor enter at their own peril. It was off limits to them.
