UNGA79: Kashim Shettima departs Abuja for New York

In order to attend the 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, Vice President Kashim Shettima left Abuja for New York, USA.

As stated in a release headed “VP Shettima Departs Abuja for US to Attend 79th UNGA,” Vice President Stanley Nkwocha, the Vice President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communication, said that the travel is taking place “at the behest of President Bola Tinubu.”

President Tinubu directed the Vice President to lead the Nigerian delegation to the high-level global forum, as he focuses on addressing pressing domestic issues, including the recent devastating flood disaster.

During the session, Vice President Shettima will “deliver Nigeria’s national statement, participate in key meetings on the sidelines of the event, and engage in bilateral meetings,” Nkwocha added.

The high-level General Debate, themed ‘Leaving No One Behind: Acting Together for the Advancement of Peace, Sustainable Development and Human Dignity for Present and Future Generations’, is scheduled to take place from September 24 to September 28, 2024.
