Nigeria Calls for Constructive Partnership to Strengthen Development

The Federal Government of Nigeria has reaffirmed its commitment to deepening national security, strengthening partnerships, and accelerating development under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda.

Honourable Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, addressed the United States government's designation of Nigeria as a country of concern, describing it as a misperception of the security challenges in the country. He emphasized that Nigeria faces longstanding security challenges impacting Christians and Muslims alike, and the government is determined to confront and end these challenges.

The Minister reiterated Nigeria's commitment to constructive engagement and partnership with international allies to promote peace, stability, and mutual understanding. The Renewed Hope Agenda focuses on restoring peace, enabling economic recovery, and building globally competitive institutions.
