President Buhari recalled noted that the visit of Canada’s Governor-General, Julie Payette, to Nigeria in October 2018 provided an opportunity for Nigeria to appreciate the humanitarian assistance of Canada to civilian populations affected by the Boko Haram insurgency.
He noted the common membership of Nigeria and Canada in the Global Counter-Terrorism Forum and several other international organisations.
The President was optimistic that both countries would continue to stand together on issues of peace and security that guarantee a better and more secure world for all.
