Ogunwusi, the former wife of the monarch has been on an all-time high!
After her shine at the last United Nations Week in New York where she
was endowed with the “Humanitarian of the Year”, her Highness, Queen
Zaynab met with United Arab Emirate’s Minister of Economy, His
Excellency Sultan Bin Saeed Al Mansoori to formalize the beginning of
international relations with the UAE Economic sector to improve economic
and cultural relations between the United Arab Emirates and several
African nations.
The Bridge, under the patronage of Her Highness, Queen Zaynab is an
African Arab organization formed to promote & improve cultural and
international relations between Arab countries in the Middle East &
Africa.
His Excellency, Sultan Bin Saeed Al Mansoori pledged his co-operation

both sides.
“Unity is a powerful engine of progress & I intend to bridge that
gap to create a union of cultural understanding, peace, and advancement
of economic opportunities across Africa and The middle east,” says
