The Russian Ambassador to Nigeria, Nikolay Udovichenko, on Saturday announced that the Nigerian and Russian governments plan to sign an agreement for the establishment of a multifunctional scientific research nuclear centre in Nigeria.
Mr. Udovichenko, who disclosed this in Lagos at this year’s Alumni Congress of the Soyuznik Alumni Association in Nigeria, said the Nigerian and Russian governments had been negotiating for the centre’s establishment.
The theme of the congress was “Harnessing The Potentials of the Nigerian Graduates of Higher Institutions of former USSR States”.
“Bilateral cooperation between Nigeria and Russia is blessed with huge potential in every avenue.
“Nuclear energy development is another area with good prospects for our two countries’ cooperation.
“This June, we expect to sign a bilateral agreement for the establishment of a multifunctional scientific centre in Nigeria,’’ he said.
The envoy also said that his government was working at reactivating its trade representation in Nigeria, to further promote trade and economic relations between the two countries.
Mr. Udovichenko, who said that thousands of Nigerians had over the years benefited from quality education in Russia, also announced his government’s plan to sustain the scholarship programme for more Nigerians.

The envoy said that it was imperative for such Nigerians to use their knowledge for the development of their country, as well as strengthening ties with the Russians.
The president of Soyuznik and chairman of the ceremony, Henry Ajomale, said the association was made up of academics, medical doctors, engineers, diplomats, political administrators and heads of professional organizations trained by the Russian government.
Mr. Ajomale expressed the gratitude of the beneficiaries to the countries that formed the former Soviet Union for bequeathing a lasting legacy, with which they could contribute to the development of Nigeria.
“We should not forget to celebrate our common heritage as beneficiaries of a unique programme by the former Soviet Government that gave us the opportunity to become what we are today,’’ he said.
The Soyunik Alumni Association of Nigeria, is the association of Nigerian graduates trained by the Former Soviet Union and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). (NAN)

If you have seen that I am an illiterate then why do you still ask if I read it or not?

Or don't you know the meaning of the word you used?

OK

I think I believe the Russians than the Americans.

Us and NATO are looking in in awe

How many times are we going to see this news? When will they start? Except the multifunctional scientific research nuclear centre is not coming with the power plant being proposed. . .

Nigeria is not safe for any nuclear power. Common oil pipeline they can't protect. Hope it will be situated in the agitators villages?

great news

Daura is an appropriate site

The site selected for the nuclear research facility is Warri. So that when the Avengers finish blowing up all the gas and sewage pipes they can blow that up also in order to spite their so called dullard.

[size=15pt]As long as the nuclear power plant is in the north, no wahala.
Afterall, the north needs the elctricity and most of the place is a desert with very scanty population.[/size]

Whether for military or peaceful means nuclear power is very dangerous. Look below to see child victims of a peaceful nuclear accident. #SayNoTo NuclearPower
