The First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has urged nations of the world to embrace peace and understanding as a way to prevent the provocations of war.
She made the call while receiving the Qatari Ambassador to Nigeria, Ali bin Ghanem Al-Hajri, in her office at the State House, Abuja recently.
In her reaction to the recent attack in Doha, Qatar’s capital, The First Lady described peace as central to God’s will for humanity, noting that it is a shared principle across major religions.
During the meeting, which was held largely behind closed doors, discussions centered on possible areas of collaboration between Nigeria’s Renewed Hope Initiative and the Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development. The partnership is expected to focus on improving the Almajiri education system and tackling the challenge of out-of-school children in Nigeria.
Ambassador Al-Hajri, in his remarks, expressed appreciation to Senator Tinubu and the Nigerian people for their solidarity and support during a difficult period for Qatar. He reaffirmed the strong ties between both nations, stressing that Nigeria remains dear to the State of Qatar.
