Federal government foreign policy will still remain economy, security: Osinbajo

Abuja – Vice President, Prof.Yemi Osinbajo, on Friday said that the foreign policy of the All Progressives Party (APC) would remain the economy and security. Osinbajo, at the Vice Presidential candidates debates in Abuja, said that the government was working on improving the trade process of the nation.
“We just set up a trade office and this accounts for some of the work we have been doing" 
“Also, some economic partnerships are being entered into with the European Union and we are looking at policies that will benefit Nigeria. “This is because we are looking at the economic interest of Nigeria in the partnership.” Osinbajo said that one of the points was that the government would cooperate with Nigeria’s neighbours and that was currently going on to secure the nation’s borders. He said that a multinational joint task force was in place with the nation’s neighbours to combat insurgency, to allow for free trade and other beneficial activities. Mr Peter Obi, Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said that Nigeria had a lot to offer Africa, thus the party would create a policy to achieve that. Obi said that the party would enter into an international relationship that would be beneficial to the nation and add value to its economy.
