December 01, (THEWILL) – The Republic of Chad has asked Nigeria to reactivate talks on a partnership on power supply between the two nations.
The Chadian Ambassador to Nigeria, Abakar Saleh Chahami, made the request on Wednesday when he paid a courtesy visit to the Minister of Power, Abubakar Aliyu, in Abuja.
Chahami said his team visited the minister to seek reactivation of
talks on the partnership.
He said the talks which had reached an advanced stage should be
revived for the benefit of both nations.
Responding, Aliyu said Nigeria will resuscitate talks with Chad on
establishing a partnership on electricity. He added that Nigeria and
Chad stand to benefit from more cooperation.
The minister, therefore, directed the ministry’s technical team to that effect.
“We are neighbours. We share a lot in the areas of culture and history. We should be able to work together and do business together, for the benefit of our people. This is coming at the right time when we already have a mutual cooperation in the area of security,” the minister added.
