* Hails GGC’s role in fostering cooperation, peace, sustainable development
Deji Elumoye in Abuja
Vice-President Kashim Shettima has stressed President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to the peace, security and stability of the Gulf of Guinea, particularly ongoing reforms in the Gulf of Guinea Commission (GGC).
He particularly noted Nigeria’s commitment to regional cooperation and to the African Union’s (AU) 2050 Integrated Maritime Strategy.
The vice-president stated this on Tuesday when he received in audience the Executive Secretary of GGC, Mr Jose Mba Abeso, and his team at the State House, Abuja.
“On behalf of President Bola Tinubu, I reaffirm Nigeria’s strong commitment to the objectives of the GGC. Nobody can undermine the role of the commission in fostering cooperation, peace and sustainable development in the Gulf of Guinea,” he noted.
Continuing, Shettima said: “As Africa’s most populous nation and unarguably the largest economy, we have interests to protect, promote, project and preserve in the Gulf of Guinea. Be reassured that some of the issues you have raised, the president will give them the desired attention. We want the Gulf of Guinea to function effectively.”
He commended the management of the GGC, assuring it of Nigeria’s “unalloyed commitment to the ideals and objectives of the commission”.
Earlier, the Executive Secretary of GGC, Mr Jose Abeso, solicited Nigeria’s support for the commission’s reform programmes aimed at expanding its membership to include all the 19 coastal states of the Gulf of Guinea, and improving peace and security in the region.
He also spoke about the need for stakeholders in the region to jointly engage insurance companies in reviewing the high premium paid for the movement of goods in the Gulf of Guinea.
Commending Nigeria’s leading role in the establishment of the Combined Maritime Taskforce in the region, Abeso sought President Tinubu’s support in rallying other political leaders in the region to operationalise the force.

President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday declared that his government has met its revenue generation target for year 2025 through non-oil sector in August.
Addressing members of The Buhari Organisation (TBO) led by former Governor of Nasarawa State, Senator Tanko Almakura, who were on a courtesy visit to him at the State House, Abuja, the president said he has met his revenue target for the year through the non-oil sector ahead of schedule.
He added that he will remain focused on Nigeria’s progress despite external pressures, including actions from US President Donald Trump.
According to him, “Nigeria is not borrowing. We have met our revenue target for the year, and we met it in August.”
Projecting confidence against international challenges, President Tinubu dismissed concerns over United States President Trump’s activities, saying: “If non-oil revenue is going well, then have no fear of whatever Trump is doing on the other side.”
