President Buhari will depart Abuja for Washington DC, USA tomorrow
Wednesday, March 30th to attend the 4th Nuclear Security Summit which
opens on Thursday March 31st.
A statement by presidential spokesperson, Femi Adesina, says that at the
plenary sessions of the summit which is dedicated to reinforcing
international commitment to the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons,
President Buhari will insist that while Nigeria will continue to sustain
that commitment, world powers must respect the right of other countries
to the peaceful use of nuclear energy for development purposes.
The President will reaffirm Nigeria's stance that
international efforts to ensure greater security of nuclear materials
should maintain a balance between nuclear non-proliferation obligations
and the indisputable right of Nigeria and other countries to harness
nuclear energy and technology for socio-economic development.
It will be recalled that at a meeting with him in Abuja earlier this
month, President Buhari told the Director-General of the International
Atomic Energy Agency, Mr. Yukiya Amano that the Federal Government will
welcome greater support from the agency for Nigeria's aspiration to
begin the generation of electricity with nuclear energy.
While in Washington DC for the Nuclear Security Summit, Buhari and his
delegation which includes Governor Mohammed Abubakar of Bauchi State,
Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara State, the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Mr. Geoffrey Onyeama, the National Security Adviser, Maj.-Gen.
Babagana Monguno (rtd.) and the Director-General of Nigeria's Nuclear
Regulatory Agency, Prof Lawrence Anikwe Dim, will also hold bilateral
meetings with other participating Heads of Government and high-ranking
United States Government officials.
President Buhari will depart Washington DC for Abuja on Sunday April
3rd.
