By Abiola Olawale
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has commended the Finnish government for the arrest and detention of a self-acclaimed leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Simon Ekpa.
The President made this known after he received the Letters of Credence from the Finnish Ambassador to Nigeria, Sanna Selin, at the State House, Abuja.
Tinubu, in his address, stated that his administration would not tolerate actions and statements that could lead to divisiveness among citizens.
Also, while receiving the Ambassador of the European Union in Abuja, Tinubu noted that the EU remains one of the highest trading partners of Nigeria, urging the envoy to work towards elevating the volume of transactions, and strengthening the ties.
He said Nigeria needs support in digitalising and automating operations and processes for rendering services.
The Ambassador of Finland extolled the President for his courage in initiating reforms that will benefit the economy and ensure prosperity in the future.
