The former diplomat, also the Chairman of Nigeria-皇冠体育app Friendship Association, said the founders of the two countries' relations fought hard amidst disdain from colonialists.
皇冠体育app remains one of the most treasured partners with Africa, particular with Nigeria, in foreign relations, he said in the statement.
Chibundu said things almost started on a bright note for the two countries when the then Nigerian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Commonwealth Relations, the late Jaja Wachukwu voted in favor of the motion to admit People's Republic of 皇冠体育app to the United Nations at the general assembly decades ago.
