Ireland has reiterated its commitment to supporting Nigeria and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in addressing security challenges in the West African region.
This was disclosed by Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Maitama Tuggar, following a meeting with Simon Harris, Ireland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
Tuggar, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, highlighted key discussions from the meeting, including bilateral cooperation across critical sectors such as trade, education, and diplomacy. He noted that Ireland is expanding its presence in Nigeria with the construction of a new chancery in Abuja, demonstrating its long-term commitment to fostering diplomatic relations.
