President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sent a congratulatory message to Ambassador Jimoh Ibrahim, Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, on his election as Chairman of the United Nations General Assembly Fifth Committee on Budget and Administration.
In a Press Statement signed by the President’s Special Adviser on Information Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu noted that the election of Senator Ibrahim is noteworthy at a particularly critical moment for the United Nations, as the world body navigates significant financial realignment while advancing critical institutional reforms to strengthen its effectiveness, accountability, and long-term sustainability.
President Tinubu said he is confident that, just as the reforms at home are yielding positive results, Ambassador Jimoh Ibrahim’s experience and unwavering commitment to excellence will justify his selection as our Permanent Representative and make Nigeria proud in the work of the Fifth Committee and in support of the broader objectives of the United Nations.
