The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila, has said that Nigeria’s foreign policy in a fast-changing world should seek to engage other nations in finding solutions to new challenges and threats so that collectively, they can address them.
The conference was organised by the House Committees on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora in conjunction with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.“To do this, we must establish the values that underpin and motivate our foreign policy as this is necessary to determine everything else, including how we protect our country from the downside of globalisation while ensuring our people benefit from the opportunities that abound”, the Speaker told the session.
“All our governing efforts must be geared towards finding solutions to these problems. Whereas the rest of the government looks inwards, it is the mandate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to look outward. It is not an easy task.” He also stated that the House intervened in the trade dispute between the authorities in Ghana and Nigerian traders in Accra in 2020, using parliamentary diplomacy to engage the Ghanaian Parliament to address the dispute.
He said, “It is about time we had a fully and comprehensively articulated document that addresses what we call the foreign policy of Nigeria.
Yes Indeed
Foreign policy that doesn't engage other nations, is that one Foreign policy before?
🇳🇪 is offering you a business opportunity now but you are all too confused to see it. Convince their new govt to channel their imports and exports via any of the under-utilised ports in the SS and take a very subsidised duties from them.
Gbajabiamila is a Mumu man and a disappointment to Oodua people.
