President Goodluck Jonathan has called on oil producing countries to work together in order to overcome the current challenge of falling crude oil prices, according to Punch.
Speaking when visited by Angola’s new Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Eustaquio Quibato, Jonathan said African oil producing countries particularly needed to come together and devise the best ways of protecting their domestic economies from the vagaries of fluctuating oil prices.
“We are blessed with oil and we must continue to do all that we possibly can to maximise its benefits for our countries and the African continent,” Jonathan reportedly told the envoy.
“For years, we have had a solid relationship. Historically, we have been together. So Nigeria and Angola should also work with greater synergy at the continental and global fora,” the President added.
At another audience with Hungary’s new Ambassador to Nigeria, Dr. Ternak Gabor, the President was also reported to have called for greater international support and assistance for the West African countries being plagued by the Ebola Virus Disease.
