In line with the spirit of inclusivity and strengthening inter-faith relationships among Nigerians, the Director-General of the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Buba Yakub has called on Nigerians to demonstrate the virtues of unity and love for one another at all times, and to continue to support the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu in the president’s bid to reposition Nigeria for enduring greatness.
NTAC Head of Information and Public Relations, Mrs. Ojo Adetoun Olubunmi who confirmed the statement to our correspondent in a statement, said the Director General made the call at a special breaking-of-fast dinner (Iftar) he hosted in Abuja on Monday for staff and strategic stakeholders of the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps.
The Director General said Nigerians have every reason to look ahead for better times given the indices of development that the current administration has engendered in less than two years in office.
While highlighting the significance of the holy month of Ramadan as a period of reflection, sacrifice and compassion for the less privileged, the former federal lawmaker urged staff to cultivate the culture of respect and mutual understanding in the workplace. He emphasized the importance of unity and teamwork in achieving NTAC’s core mandate and the Nigeria of everyone’s dreams.
The event, which was held to commemorate the Holy Month of Ramadan and to engage with citizens on the achievements of the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps in the promotion of the foreign policy components of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the Federal Government in the last one-and-half years also aimed at fostering unity among staff, NTAC’s various stakeholders and Nigerians at large, regardless of religious affiliations.
The very colorful event had in attendance, Ambassadors and staff of various Agencies, Departments and Units of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, NTAC local staff as well as other stakeholders and friends of the Agency. It created an avenue for informal discussions and team-bonding beyond the regular office engagements in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
Among those who expressed gratitude to the Director-General for the very thoughtful initiative was Amb. Yakubu Abdullahi Ahmed, Director of Administration at NTAC. He lauded the event for its capacity to rejuvenate the entire NTAC workforce for greater productivity in the days and weeks ahead, and even more so for providing the important opportunity for the world to discuss the giant strides of the Tinubu Administration across the world through the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps.
