Pres. Tinubu receives in audience the UK Sec. of State for Foreign/Commonwealth Affairs, Mr James Cleverly and other UK Delegates at the Presidential Villa

Briefing State House correspondents shortly after an audience with President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa, Cleverly said, “We touched briefly on the situation in Niger. I made the point that the UK very much welcomes ECOWAS’ and his (Tinubu’s) indeed decisive action, his strong commitment to democracy, and the unambiguous message that violence is not the means to bring political change in any circumstance.

“And that the commitment to democracy in Nigeria and the region is unwavering.”
