According to the Ambassador, “From what I learnt, your Special Forces conducted themselves in the most professional manner worthy of praise and emulation.

According to the CAS, “Nigeria remains open to all foreigners who want to come and invest, and they can be rest assured of their safety as we will continue to ensure that our country remains attractive for foreign investors.”
