Nigeria has moved to strengthen her economic and trade relationship with her West African neighbour, Togo.
Nigeria’s Ambassador to Togo, Mr. Debo Adesina spoke at the weekend after presenting Letters of Credence to President Faure Gnassingbe in Lome.
He said: “The key component of my mandate, as given by President Muhammadu Buhari, is to vigorously pursue economic diplomacy and strengthen our partnership in the areas of trade and economic development for the benefit of our people.
“Therefore, as Ambassador, I will seek to expand the frontiers of our trade relations and economic cooperation. I will work for the resuscitation of the Bilateral Trade Agreements between Nigeria and Togo as well as the reactivation of Nigeria-Togo Joint Commission.”
He described Nigeria and Togo as strong allies and strategic partners.
“We have a long history of togetherness. Our joint leadership in fostering unity in the West African sub-region and our shared vision of dignity for our people remain examples for many to follow.”
