Speaking at the 52nd African Day celebration in Abuja, the Dean of the African Ambassadors’ Group, Ambassador Oubi Bachir, said that African countries must come together to fight the insurgents.
The ambassadors said peace and stability in Nigeria is imperative because Nigeria is Africa’s biggest economy.
The diplomats representing several African countries in Nigeria gathered to also mark the Nelson Mandela International Day and they used the occasion to discuss issues affecting the African continent.
The diplomats recognized the role Nigeria plays on the African continent and expressed hope that their countries would play a role in Nigeria’s fight against terrorism.
If the statements from the diplomats are anything to go by, Nigeria might just be able to find more allies among her African brothers to combat the Boko Haram threat."
