Despite not attending the 79th UN General Assembly due to a devastating flood in Nigeria, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made his presence felt through his powerful vision for a world order built on inclusivity, equality, and cooperation.
The 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, 79th UNGA , might have come and gone. However, its echoes will reverbrate across the world. Indeed, it was the Session in which Nigeria ’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, gave Africa and developing nations a voice that resonated globally.
Opting for his deputy to represent him at the event, the President must have taken into cognizance the ability and capacity of Vice President Kashim Shettima, whom he delegated to lead the Nigerian contingent to the 79th UNGA. The President’s brilliant idea of having Senator Shettima represent him at the world event is a proof of the confidence he has in his second-in-command.
President Tinubu expressed worry about the main objectives of the UN and how it could sustain the global body’s relevance and resilience, noting that the pillars of the organisation are at risk of being broken against the principles of inclusivity, equality and cooperation which it stands for. The potential business and economic gains from Shettima’s representation of President Tinubu at this year’s UNGA included an opportunity for Nigeria to engage with international investors, showcasing Nigeria’s economic potential and attracting foreign investment. By building relationships with world leaders, the VP fostered partnerships that promote Nigeria’s economic interests, expand trade, and enhance cooperation in key sectors.
