The Foreign Affairs Minister, Ambassador Yusuf Maitama Tuggar, has reiterated the federal government's dedication to safeguarding religious liberty and fostering harmony among citizens in Nigeria.
In a holiday statement released on Thursday, Tuggar sent well-wishes to Christians in Nigeria and abroad, promising that the administration would keep working towards enhancing community harmony and national solidarity.
He mentioned that Christmas provides a chance for contemplation, discussion, and strengthened dedication to mutual respect within Nigeria's various religious groups.
As per a declaration authored by his press secretary, Alkasim Abdulkadir, the minister stated that governmental bodies will keep being reinforced to safeguard every individual of faith and foster unity throughout the nation.
"The Nigerian government was established based on the idea of religious freedom and mutual respect between its citizens," Tuggar stated.
We remain determined to strengthen our institutions to maintain these principles, promote greater mutual comprehension among different faiths, and guarantee that no individual is left out or treated unfairly due to their beliefs.
The official stated that ensuring the security and entitlements of Nigerian citizens from every religion, whether inside the nation or abroad, continues to be a key focus in governmental policies and international relations.
He encouraged people to leverage the Christmas period to foster harmony, perseverance, and acceptance, highlighting that Nigeria's power comes from its variety and common vision.
Statements made by Tuggar occur during increased global focus on religious liberty in Nigeria. In October, ex-United States President Donald Trump criticized the federal government for not preventing assaults on Christians and labeled Nigeria as a "Country of Special Interest" in a message on his Truth Social platform, cautioning that ongoing violence might lead to penalties, such as limitations on American assistance.
