The CEO of the Africa Development Study Centre (ADSC), Ambassador Victor Walsh Oluwafemi has said President Bola Tinubu’s strategic measures which led to the immediate cessation of visa ban on Nigerians by the United Arab Emirate is a masterstroke.
Recall that the impasse was very much in force before President Tinubu emerged as the Nigerian number one citizen last May.
Tinubu however met with the President of the United Arab Emirates, Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, in Abu Dhab to resolve the consular and economic impasse.
Speaking however, Ambassador Victor Oluwafemi, a seasoned management consultant, hailed the president on this landmark in a statement he personally signed yesterday.
He explained that the development which banned Nigerian travelers nine months ago took a new twist after President Tinubu met with the UAE leader and this has led to the immediate resumption of flight schedules for both Etihad Airlines and Emirates Airlines into and out of Nigeria which is welcoming and salutary.
He said the move has given greater investment opportunities to Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.
He said President Tinubu is the first Nigerian politician that has deliberately prepared himself for authentic leadership because of his uncommon support for the Nigerian people since assumption of office particularly in foreign policy interventions and domestic governance ecosystem in the last 100 days.
According to him, the significant gesture in boosting Nigeria-UAE cooperation economically and geopolitically is second to none in the political history of Nigeria.
