"Madam President, as previous speakers have said: today is a day of reflection. It is the second anniversary of the abductions of the schoolgirls from Chibok and we are remembering them today, along with many others who have suffered at the hands of Boko Haram, and particularly the families of those whose fate is unknown. In responding to this, there is a great need for coordinated action both within the State of Nigeria itself and within the region. We know that there is real difficulty involved in deploying adequate state resources. Nigeria is a fossil-fuel-dependent economy. In our view it needs transition planning urgently, but prices have dropped; we know that there is gross inequality within the country, and there is an urgent need to tackle corruption in order to increase revenue. Furthermore, to improve the quality of governance, we need trusted institutions to tackle tensions, confront violent extremism and increase the general quality of life for Nigerians.
So we welcome the current Government’s efforts, but we also want the EU Member States, and indeed our companies operating in Nigeria, to cooperate as well."@en1
