We’ll tap our seabed resources via adequate deployment of technology – Buhari

Lodge is in Abuja to attend a workshop on Africa Deep Sea Resources in Abuja.

Buhari said resources would be deployed, and studies done, believing it would be worth the while.

The president also used the occasion to applaud the Nigerian Navy for its role in protecting the country’s maritime domain, urging it to “continue to guard us jealously.”

Lodge thanked Nigeria for hosting the international workshop, and lauded the country for providing leadership on the African continent.

He encouraged the country to explore her deep seabed resources “to support the blue economy” and pledged solidarity with Nigeria during his administration as the Secretary-General.
