  • ”In spite all that they have seen and endured, the people I saw remain hopeful and committed to returning to their communities and resuming their lives.
  • ”To that end, I welcome the establishment of the Presidential Committee on the Repatriation, Return and Resettlement of displaced persons in the North-East.”
  • He added that he also discussed the smooth transition of democracy for Nigeria’s 2023 elections with President Buhari, adding that they “discussed the importance of laying the groundwork to ensure peaceful and democratic elections next year and the full participation of Nigerian women and young people in all areas.
  • ”We also discussed government’s measures to address security challenges across the country.
  • ”I want to extend my deepest condolences to the victims of the appalling attacks in Plateau State, two and half weeks ago.
  • ”It is a tragic reminder of terrorism scourge across West Africa and the Sahel,” he said.
