Leaders of Nigeria and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have expressed commitment to a”stable oil market” and a “rebound of oil price.”


At a bilateral meeting between Nigeria and Saudi Arabia in Riyadh hosted by the ruler King Salman Bin Abdul-Aziz, the two leaders accepted the fact that their two economies are tied to oil and that all cannot be well with both countries when then the world oil market is unstable. They therefore committed themselves to doing all that is possible to stabilize the market and rebound the oil price.

The two leaders who engaged in extensive discussions on regional and global issues also agreed that terrorism posed a common threat to their states and would require close cooperation to prevail over the threats.

President Muhammadu Buhari who was making his first pronouncement on the invitation to join the coalition of Islamic states against terror spearheaded by the Saudis congratulated the Kingdom on its formation.

“Even if we are not a part of it, we support you. I must thank the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the recent creation of a coalition to address the menace of international terrorism. Nigeria will support your efforts in keeping peace and stopping the spread of terror in your region. This is in consonance with our own commitment and on-going efforts in seeking to stamp out Boko Haram terrorists from the West African sub-region and Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC),” the President said.

Speaking on global terror generally, President Buhari said that “international terrorism made a statement by attacking one of the advanced countries by carrying out an attack on Paris in which 130 were killed. Now we have to come together to find a common solution to the problem of terrorism.”

He thanked the Saudi government for it continuing support to Nigeria in the fight against terrorism.

Turning to the menace that Libya has turned into, President Buhari regretted that the late Libyan leader Muammar Ghaddafi recruited, trained and armed citizens of many states in the Sahel region. With his fall, these mercenaries have returned to their countries, “doing nothing but to shoot and kill.” He cited Burkina Faso and Mali as the main victims but expressed happiness that the countries neighboring the Lake Chad have tightened their ranks to finish off the Boko Haram threat.

“Luckily, we have cultivated our neighbors. We are now working together against Boko Haram,otherwise the problem would have become worse.”

He and King Salman hoped that the Libyan factions will soon see reason to reunite and restore fully their own country so as to save the world from further terrorism spin-offs from that country.

The leaders also focused on trade between their states and agreed to give fresh impetus to the joint commission previously established in order to boost commercial and other activities to unify their peoples.

In his remarks, King Salman commended the progress made by Nigeria in combating terrorism and promised to give further support and assistance.

He welcomed the support of the Nigerian government for the new ant-terrorism coalition and implored the President to consider its full membership.

King Salman pledged his full support and cooperation to Nigeria under its present leadership and directed all agencies of his government to follow up on the discussions.

“I now instruct my team to go and sit down with your relevant agencies to push forward cooperation between our states,” the King concluded by saying.

Ok

Even though Buhari didn't actually say he'll stabilize world oil prices, here he is actually making that happen with the biggest player in the world. I wonder what some people will have to say about this. I expect to see a lot of "islam/muslim blah blah blah"

You know, sometimes, I just wonder what some citizens stand to gain if this man fail? Perhaps they have forgotten that we, the citizens, will be the ones to go down if he fails. I understand that some of them are still suffering from the defeat of their 'hero', but then, we have to move on.

His dream...
And they might understand each other very well...


Bla bla bla Guns, bombs... Bla bla bla money, crude oil.. Bla bla jihad, kill bla bla flex virgins.. Kai.. Paradise..

How can presidiot bokoharii join a coalition against terror when he himself is blood terrorist?

An attack against boko haram is an attack against the north- Presidiot Mumuhamadu Buhari.

Incase

Buhari on a mission to stabilize oil price. Keep working hard baba.

This trip paid off
Now off to iran to do the same

But seriously, how did Buhari pull this off without signing the anti-terrorism coalition
I guess his masters degree in strategic studies really paid off.

And yes, he does have a H.degree from the USA.

All we want is the best for Nigeria

Nawao we are in trouble. The way this man is going about narrating all our problems is becoming worrisome. Nigeria where art thy pride and dignity? We are gradually becoming objects of pity.

I don't even know to respond to this. Do you read at all? Do you know low oil prices is not a secret? You know this low oil is worldwide? Do you know all oil producing countries are feeling it? Ma'am Buhari isn't telling the man what he doesn't know. Everyone is well aware of what low oil prices is doing to our economy. You guys must really try not to make yourselves look bad because you want to criticize Buhari.

We are not an Islamic State so we shouldn't join such a league.
Nice one by the President.
More sense to your brain.

This is just mere rhetorics, Saudi Arabia wont cut down oil production unless the USA, Iran and Russia do likewise, as these are their major competitors in the global market share.

Convincing these four nations to cut down production is almost impossible at this time as Iran and USA will not likely do this. Instead of still focusing on oil, why cant Buhari invest more time and effort in our agricultural and mining sector.

This is the time and our only chance of diversification; Mr President, dont waste this opportunity to get things right.

I am watching Buhari's administration in 3D

Let him go and meet Obama over exchange rate too.

Bubu may eventually stabilize world oil prices after all.

I'm still trying to figure out how Saudi will agree to a decision that will benefit Iran.

Buhari is confused, what exactly is he planning on contributing to the cause.

A President that knows nothing..

Does it mean Mr. President doesn't have anything to offer us, nothing in his head or what?

Is he surposed to be talking about oil or to start devoloping local businesses as alternative to this deteriorating stage of oil.
