UNITED Nations (UN) Joint Special Representative for Darfur Hybrid Operation Ambassador Martin Uhomoibhi has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari not to reduce the number of Nigeria’s foreign missions.
Uhomoibhi, who heads the African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur, said reducing the number of missions would have negative effect on Nigeria’s foreign policies and relationship with the affected countries.
Speaking at the sidelines of the Fourth Annual Lecture of Society for International Relations Awareness in Abuja, he said rather than close some missions, Federal Government should introduce “smart missions”.
He explained that a “smart mission” only had an ambassador, one diplomatic staff and local staff.
