President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed appreciation to the Vietnamese government for its security and economic development support to Nigeria.
Speaking Thursday while receiving in audience the Ambassador of Socialist Republic of Vietnam, His Excellency Luong Quoc Thinh at the State House Abuja, the President thanked the Socialist Republic of Vietnam for its support in areas of security, and economic development.
He expressed the wish that bilateral relations between the two countries will continue to grow.
President Buhari while wishing the outgoing envoy well in his future endeavours said “Best wishes in your next assignment. In your three years tour of duty here, we have virtually lived together. Congratulations on a successful term.”
Earlier in his speech, Ambassador Thinh congratulated the Nigerian President on successful 2023 general elections, and the widespread victory of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) in Presidential, National Assembly, Gubernatorial and State Assembly polls.
He canvassed a mutual relationship between the Communist Party of Vietnam, and the APC.
Stressing that the Coronavirus pandemic affected a good part of his stay in the country, the envoy lauded President Buhari on how Nigeria admirably tackled the global health challenge, and how the economy is being rebuilt.
