Nigeria, Poland vow to strengthen ties with MoU on agriculture
KANO, Nigeria (AA) – Nigeria and Poland signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on agriculture Tuesday, while pledging to enlarge economic cooperation in the energy and manufacturing sectors.
A ceremony in the Nigerian capital of Abuja took place during a visit by Polish President Andrezej Duda, the first by a Polish leader since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the countries in 1961.
President Muhammadu Buhari said at a news conference that Nigeria is gratified by the fruitful cooperation with Poland in maritime, education and defense.
Duda noted that Nigeria and Poland have enjoyed excellent bilateral relations in the last 60 years, buoyed at the people-to-people level with the presence of Nigerians at Polish higher institutions of learning as well as the input of Polish engineers and scientists in the building of infrastructure in Nigeria.
