President Muhammadu Buhari has said that Nigeria will encourage and support every move that will enhance economic cooperation between her and the Republic of Algeria.
President Buhari said this on Thursday while receiving a special envoy of the Algerian President, who is also the country’s Foreign Minister, Mr Sabri Boukadoum, at State House, Abuja.

The President, in a statement issued by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, said projects like the Trans-Sahara road, international gas pipelines, and other areas of economic cooperation would be given adequate attention for the good of the people of the two countries.
Buhari underscored the need for peace, tranquility and security in African countries.
“Unless you secure your environment, you can’t manage it well. We should all secure our countries, because if we don’t, what do we then bequeath to the next generation? We can’t grow or develop in an insecure environment,” he said.
The Special Envoy, who said Nigeria was the pillar of Africa, stated that he had brought messages from his President “so that we consult, and see what we can do together.”
