President Muhammadu Buhari,
Thursday in Abuja restated Nigeria’s support for the people of the Sahrawi Arab
Democratic Republic, SADR, and their quest for self-determination and
independence.
At an audience granted the
President of SADR, Brahim Ghali at the State House, the Nigerian leader
stressed that the country’s position is in line with the several resolutions of
the African Union (AU) and the United Nations (UN) on the matter.
Details of the meeting was made
available to NigerianEye on Thursday by Femi Adesina, the President’s Special
Assistant on Media and Publicity.
Buhari said, “Nigeria remains
committed to supporting the efforts of the AU and the UN towards finding a
lasting solution to the Sahrawi problem.”
Earlier, President Ghali had
congratulated President Buhari on his re-election and the successful
celebration of Democracy Day.
He commended Nigeria’s past
support for SADR during President Buhari’s tenure as military Head of State,
and the country’s support for liberation movements on the African continent.
The SADR leader said the weight
of Nigeria’s support remained crucial to the final resolution of the “continued
colonisation of his people.”
It would be recalled that Nigeria
recognised SADR on November 11, 1984 when General Buhari was Head of State.
May our forefathers punish any Igbos against Biafra. Do you see it now?
