Nigeria deserves permanent UN security council seat – Biden

US President, Joe Biden says Nigeria deserves a permanent seat at the United Nations security seat.

This is as he said his country was committed to seeing Africa have two permanent seats at the United Nations, UN, security council.

Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, said Biden made his stance on Nigeria’s quest for a permanent UN security council seat during a phone call to President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday evening.

Tuggar said the 30-minute phone call between the two leaders was against the backdrop of the release of Tigran Gambaryan, Binance’s head of finance crime compliance, on October 23.

The minister quoted the US president as saying that he did not see why Nigeria should not have a permanent seat at the UN security council.

“The two leaders also discussed the issue of permanent seats, and the United Nations security council and President Biden once again assured that the United States is committed to seeing Africa having two permanent seats,” Tuggar added.

Recall that Africa has long clamoured for equal representation in the UN security council.

DAILY POST reports that the UN General Assembly, each year elects five new members from different geographical zones for a two-year term on the council.

Africa has three rotational seats on the 15-member council.
