President Bola Tinubu has stated that Nigeria is ready to participate actively in the G-20 and help to create a more just world.
This was stated in a statement released on Saturday in Abuja by Ajuri Ngelale, the president’s special adviser on media and publicity.
Speaking to world leaders during the 18th G-20 Leaders’ Summit in New Delhi, India, Tinubu urged for international cooperation and solidarity in addressing urgent issues, promoting inclusivity, and constructing a more just global order.
The President recognized the G-20’s crucial contribution to creating a rules-based international system that fosters shared prosperity and security.
Tinubu also emphasized:
“Most of today’s pressing issues are international in character and cannot be addressed without multilateral cooperation.
“Therefore, stronger collaboration, cooperation, and partnership among diverse regions are the pathways to a peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable future for our world.
According to him,
“This is why the role and contributions of the G-20 in shaping a new world order that is fair and rules-based cannot be over-emphasized.
“I hasten to add that such rules and global governance structures of our collective dreams must be collectively designed, collectively owned, and collectively managed.”
The president noted that this is consistent with the true spirit of one Family, mutual respect, and sustainable development.
“Nigeria is poised, able and willing to be a major player in this family of the G-20 and in shaping a new world, without whom, the family will remain incomplete,” he said.
Speaking further, Tinubu congratulated India for hosting the historic summit and for successfully landing on the moon under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
