Jonathan Calls for Global Efforts to Eradicate Terrorism
« on: September 24, 2013, 08:51:10 AM »
President Goodluck Jonathan Monday in New York called for a stronger global consensus and determination to end the scourge of terrorism as quickly as possible.

Speaking with President Barrack Obama of the United States ahead of the opening of the 68th session of the United Nations tomorrow, President Jonathan said that unless the international community unites and deploys its enormous resources to eradicate terrorism, it will continue to be embarrassed by terrorist outrages such as the heinous attack on defenceless shoppers in Nairobi which both leaders strongly condemned.

President Jonathan expressed appreciation of the support and assistance Nigeria has been receiving from the United States for its fight against domestic terrorism.

He added, however, that Nigeria will welcome even more bilateral collaboration in this regard.

The President said that his administration also looked forward to the further strengthening of Nigeria's relations with the United States in the areas of trade and economic development.

President Barrack Obama reassured President Jonathan of his commitment to the continuous strengthening of Nigeria's electoral processes and the country's democratic institutions.
