VP Shettima Returns To Abuja After UNGA80 And Germany Missions by streetpaddy(op): 10:03am On Oct 02, 2025

Vice President Kashim Shettima has successfully wrapped up a major week-long diplomatic mission, returning to Abuja after representing President Bola Tinubu at the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA80) in New York and concluding strategic engagements in Germany. The trip was characterized by high-level meetings aimed at advancing Nigeria’s foreign policy and economic agenda on the global stage.

Dependable NG reports that the Vice President's activities at the UN were pivotal. He delivered President Tinubu's official national statement, which included a strong appeal for comprehensive reforms within the United Nations system. Crucially, VP Shettima also used the international platform to champion the cause of African sovereignty over the continent’s vast mineral wealth, estimated at $700 billion, calling for stronger control by African nations over these critical resources.

The mission focused heavily on securing strategic global partnerships. During his time abroad, Shettima strengthened ties with key international stakeholders, including the United Kingdom and the Gates Foundation. A significant diplomatic win came during his meeting with UN Secretary-General António Guterres, where he secured the Secretary-General’s commendation for Nigeria’s longstanding bid for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.

Economically, the Vice President actively courted global investors, specifically showcasing Nigeria’s massive $200 billion energy transition opportunity. This engagement was part of a larger push to attract foreign direct investment necessary to meet Nigeria's ambitious climate and development goals.

Before proceeding to his engagements in Germany, VP Shettima also met with members of the Nigerian diaspora community, offering assurances of their robust inclusion in the policies and programmes of the President Tinubu administration, underscoring their vital role in national development.

Welcome back , he tried his best at UNGA , he didn't disgrace us
Re: VP Shettima Returns To Abuja After UNGA80 And Germany Missions by MatrixCircle:
UNGA80 where he disgraced us with an unexpected low IQ speech. The speech writer could have done better. I looked among the cabinet and couldn't find anyone that could have done better.

Gone are the days when Nigerian government appointees and office holders were picked according to competence hinged on Experience, Skills and Knowledge despite political affiliation and tribes.

We had a team of the likes of;

Ngozi Okonjo iweala
Amina Muhammed
Sanusi A Sanusi
Chukwuma Soludo
Shammsuden Usman
Frank Nweke Jnr
Dora Akunyili (Late)
Adeshina (AfDB)
Nenadi Usman
Nasiru El Rufai etc

Nigeria was respected among the committee of Nations. The economy was robust because square
pegs were placed in square holes , Nigeria was winning.

Now appointments are based on tribe and political affiliations. We are now the laughing stocks among committee of Nations.

Make he dey enjoy life while the citizens are suffering.
Re: VP Shettima Returns To Abuja After UNGA80 And Germany Missions by kolente:
PBAT was very smart for avoiding the UNGA although sending the wrong signals to preying inquisitive Nigerians and the opposition.

President Donald Trump is well known for his unpredictability might have publicly embarrassed our President.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the CPC bloc of the APC's visit had publicly declared that Nigeria over-shot its revenues target and that "we no longer have to bother about Trump and what he is doing".

That quote sent a message directly to Trump that Nigeria had re-aligned its revenue trajectory without giving a hoot on Trump & his shenanigans.

Tinubu had better avoid the USA if he truly hasn't cleared his issues with the American Courts on the release of the court judgment of his Chicago case.

There is no reason for PBAT no to have been in the UNGA being the most high-level investment pitch event of every calendar year talk less of when Nigeria needs to rally stable FDIs.

Just imagine the waste of resources. APC spent all that money just to come back and count "securing the Secretary-General’s commendation for Nigeria’s longstanding bid for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council" as a diplomatic win. Are we slaves?

You mean brain with the stealing inspiration. I don't need such brain of greedy individuals. They can't survive without looting. To them, money is a god cos they have done the unreasonable to acquire corrupt wealth.

They are not leaders but demons.

I feel your pain. Governance is about the people, not about glamour and selfish motives. The thieves you celebrate care less about you. Wake up from slumber

One thing about our politicians is the fact they're not pretending to care for poor masses...they're showing u that they don't care...openly daring u to revolt if u get the capacity and we are all docile...
