The Anambra State government has commended the Federal Government on its three recent moves on the international scene, saying that Nigeria’s foreign policy is becoming dynamic once again.

In separate detailed letters to President Muhammadu Buhari, Foreign Minister Geoffrey Onyeama and Information Culture Minister Lai Mohammed, Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State assessed the Federal Government’s response to the plight of Nigerian businessmen in Ghana, the reelection of Nigeria’s erstwhile Minister of Agriculture, Dr Akinwunmi Adesina, as the president of the African Development Bank (AfDB).

In the letters shown to newsmen yesterday in Awka, the Anambra State capital, by the state Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, C. Don Adinuba, Governor Obiano described as robust the FG’s warning to the Ghanaian authorities in the light of well-documented actions against innocent and law-abiding Nigerians in Ghana doing legitimate businesses.

The Anambra State government noted that it will be a profoundly sad development if Ghanaians create the impression that non-Africans are welcome to their country but not fellow Blacks and Africans.

The letter by Governor Obiano also praised President Buhari for personally leading the campaign for the reelection of Dr Akinwunmi Adesina as the African Development Bank (AfDB) president last week in the Ivorian capital, Abidjan capital.

The people and government of Anambra State are satisfied that all the allegations against Dr Adesina, including his hiring of a worthy daughter of Anambra State, Mrs Chinelo Anohu-Amaizu, as a top executive have been proved by the independent panel of investigators to be without merit.

The letter also noted that Mrs Okonjo-Iweala, a former World Bank Managing Director, is today a candidate for the World Trade Organization (WTO) Director General on the strength of her training, knowledge, skills, experience, goodwill, competence, and other international leadership attributes.

He also said that the Nigerian government under President Buhari which nominated her for the post to a global applause has to do everything within its power to ensure that Dr Okonjo-Iweala gets the job because she is the best candidate for the job.

He stated that this will demonstrate to the whole world that Nigeria, once known for its dynamic foreign policy, is returning to the global stage with strength and renewed vigour.
