Buhari promises to honour all international trade agreements

President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday promised that his administration will honour all international trade agreements that will directly improve the living conditions of Nigerians.

A statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, quoted the President as speaking during an audience he had with the outgoing Ambassador of Turkey to Nigeria, Mr. Mustafa Pulat.

Buhari said under his leadership, the Federal Government would give special attention to the implementation of such agreements, especially in the provision of infrastructure, good education and job opportunities.

Commending the Ambassador’s efforts to expand areas of bilateral cooperation between Nigeria and Turkey, Buhari applauded the growth of trade between both countries in recent years.

“I am impressed with the improvement in our trade relations which coincided with the period you arrived in Nigeria.

“As we settle down into governance, we will look into other areas in which we can work together and directly help
our people,” Buhari reportedly assured Pulat.

The President also praised the outgoing Ambassador’s positive impact on education in Nigeria as reflected in the increased number of Turkish schools and universities in Nigeria.

Pulat told the President that during his two and half years in Abuja, he focused on ensuring better cultural, educational and trade relations between Nigeria and Turkey.
