Palestinian Envoy urges Christians and Muslims in Nigeria to continually work out ways to live together in peace

 

The Ambassador of the state of Palestine to Nigeria, Dr Montaser Abuzaid has called for greater cooperation between Nigeria and Palestine just as he commended the Nigerian government and African Union for their support to the State of Palestine in its quest for membership in the United Nations General Assembly.

In a meeting with the Governor Muktar Ramalan Yero, the Envoy described Nigeria as an investment haven for the people of Palestine and reiterated plans to strengthen the diplomatic ties of both countries through commerce and trade.

Nigeria was amongst the 138 countries that voted for the admission of the State of Palestine into the UN General Assembly in 2012.

Expressing gratitude for the visit and the intention of Palestine authorities to invest in Kaduna State, Dr Yero said it is the sincere hope of Nigeria that peace is returned to the Middle East.

The governor expressed hope that the cordial relations between Kaduna and the Palestinians will continue to grow stronger.

He called on the international community to intensify efforts towards resolving the conflicts in the Middle East.

He also urged Christians and Muslims in Nigeria to continually work out ways to live together in peace.
