The report authored by a national daily on the Samoa agreement was tabled for deliberations at the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday, where the cabinet members condemned it entirely.
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris , who disclosed this to State House reporters, after the FEC, said a letter of complaint has already been forwarded to the media ombudsman, the Nigerian Press Council to compel the newspaper from circulating information that is wrong and misleading. He said some Nigerians have come up with different insinuations which are totally incorrect.
Negotiations on the agreement began in 2018, and it was signed on 15 November 2018 by all 27 EU member states and 47 of the 79 OACPS states. The African Regional Protocol on the matter consists of two parts – a framework for cooperation and areas of cooperation that include inclusive and sustainable economic growth, and environmental and human rights protection, among others.
