President Tinubu Addresses 78th United Nations General Assembly; Advocates Universal Sanction by UN Nations for their Companies, Persons Illegally Smuggling Arms, Minerals Into, Out of Africa

President Tinubu Delivers Remarks Before the 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly and Urges the United Nations to Implement Universal Sanctions Against Companies and Individuals Who Illegally Smuggle Arms and Minerals Into and Out Of Africa.

President Bola Tinubu gave a speech to world leaders at the 78th United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday in New York City. During his speech, he made a resolute and compelling declaration that the time has come for UN member states to show, with their actions, that they mean what they say concerning the crackdown on terror financing, economic sabotage, and illicit mineral and arms smuggling in developing countries. He said that the time is now.

“Protecting the continent’s mineral-rich regions from smuggling and violence is the fourth critical component of building trust and solidarity around the world.” A great number of these areas have degenerated into dungeons of misery and exploitation. Despite the significant presence of the United Nations there, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has been plagued by this issue for decades. The economy of the world owes a lot to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, but it only offers her a very small amount.

“Foreign entities that are aided by local criminals who aspire to be petty warlords have drafted thousands of our people into servitude in order to illegally mine gold and other resources,” she said. “These local criminals have aspirations of becoming petty warlords.” Countless violent businesses are kept afloat by the billions of cash that were intended to help the nation. If nothing is done to stop them, they will be a danger to peace and place our national security in significant jeopardy. Many people in Africa are curious about the motivation for this phenomenon, particularly in light of the magnitude of the wrongdoing and the enormous stakes involved in the situation. The responding member nations are obligated to cooperate with us in order to prevent their companies and citizens from participating in the looting of the continent’s resources in the 21st century. It is imperative that nations no longer be impoverished if this international organization is to uphold its principles and if the theme of this year’s Assembly is to be carried out. The President has said that there must be an immediate end to the “pillage of resources belonging to one nation by the overreach of firms and people from stronger nations.”

In addition, President Tinubu mentioned that his aggressive economic development diplomatic push for new investment has been demonstrably effective in presenting Nigeria as business-ready. However, the President stated that the ease of doing business may not be the primary barrier to large-scale investment.

The question at hand is not whether or whether Nigeria is open for commercial activity. The question that needs to be answered is what percentage of the globe is actually open to the idea of doing business with Nigeria and other countries in Africa on an equal footing and in a way that is advantageous to both parties. The President emphasized that direct investment in essential industries, opening their ports to a wider variety and larger amount of high-quality African exports, and providing substantial debt relief are crucial components of the collaboration that we desire.

The President also mentioned that the global fight against the effects of climate change cannot be based on a “one size fits all” approach, and that nations need to be cooperated with in the design and implementation of their own strategies, which are tailored to their respective socio-economic strengths and weaknesses. In addition, the President mentioned that a “one size fits all” approach can not be based on a “one size fits all” approach.

“Nations on the African continent are committed to combating climate change; however, we must do so on our own terms. This campaign needs to be in line with our overall economic objectives in order for us to attain the necessary level of public consensus. In Nigeria, we are going to develop political agreement by publicizing corrective steps that also benefit the economic well-being of the country as a whole. Examples of efforts that simultaneously advance economic and climate change objectives include “The Great Green Wall,” which aims to stop the advance of deserts, the mass production and distribution of gas-burning stoves, which aims to stop the destruction of our forests, and “local water management and irrigation projects,” which aims to provide employment opportunities. The President warned that continental efforts to address climate change will only register significant victory if established economies are more forthcoming with public and private sector investment for Africa’s preferred projects and initiatives. Continental efforts will register critical victories only if established economies are more forthright with public and private sector investment.

In his closing remarks, President Bola Tinubu reminded the audience what Africa genuinely represents in the context of the global village.

“Stay by our side as loyal friends and business partners. Africa is not a problem to be avoided, nor is it something for which we should feel sorry or pity. Africa is not anything less than the master key to the destiny of the entire planet.
