“I know Turkey wants to encourage Nigeria and the whole of Africa and we are grateful.
“We are looking forward to when Nigeria would take her place in the comity of nations, and that is very soon.”
Earlier, Ambassador Hidayet Bayraktar disclosed that Turkish Nationals are looking forward to improved collaborations with Nigeria especially in Security, Energy, Construction, and using entertainment to enhance culture and health.
