Shettima jets out to US for UN General Assembly

Vice-President Kashim Shettima has departed Abuja for the United States to attend the 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, UNGA, at the behest of President Bola Tinubu.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Communications (Office of the Vice President), Mr Stanley Nkwocha, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.

DAILY POST reports that Tinubu had earlier directed the Vice-President to lead the Nigerian delegation to the high-level global forum.

According to the statement, this will enable the President to focus on addressing pressing domestic issues, including the recent devastating flood disaster in parts of the country.

Nkwocha said during the session, Shettima would deliver Nigeria’s national statement, participate in key meetings on the sidelines of the event, and engage in bilateral meetings.

He said that the high-level general assembly, with the theme, ‘Leaving no one behind: Acting Together for the Advancement of Peace, Sustainable Development and Human Dignity for Present and Future Generations’, will take place from September 24 to September 28.
