By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The FCT Minister, Barr. Nyesom Wike has promised to approve land for the building of the Somalian Chancery in Abuja.

Wike gave the assurance to the Somalian Ambassador to Nigeria, Jamal Mohammed Barrow who visited him in his office in Abuja on Thursday.

The minister assured the Ambassador that he will immediately call for the file so you can have your land and start building your Chancery.”

“ Nigeria and Somalia has many things in common, unfortunately, a sad one like the civil war, when a country is facing war, it retards development.”

“Security is very key for us, where we are now is not where we want to be, there is still room for improvement.We want out guests to be comfortable, don’t hesitate to come to us where you have observations.”

Speaking earlier, the Somalian Ambassador to Nigeria, Barrow expressed hoped that Nigeria and his country can interface as Nigeria can be an example, especially Abuja the capital city and Mogadishu, the Somali capital.

“ We want to ask for assistance, there is a long history of relationship between Nigeria and Somalia. We want to see how Abuja is working and how you are doing it so we can do same in Mogadishu. We want to make Nigeria our second home.”

We’ve been in war, we’ve got our challenges, we operate a federal system, we do hope that Nigeria is the best model to copy. Since both have the same experiences, we can work together, Barrow said.
