Tony Elumelu, chairman of the United Bank for Africa (UBA), and Vice-President Kashim Shettima attended the UN event.

Shettima spoke at the UNGA on behalf of President Bola Tinubu. The president called for permanent seats for Nigeria and Africa on the United Nations security council.

“The security council should be expanded, in the permanent and non-permanent member categories, to reflect the diversity and plurality of the world. We fully support the efforts of secretary-general Guterres in this regard,” Tinubu said.

“Africa must be accorded the respect that it deserves in the security council. Our continent deserves a place in the permanent members category of the security council, with the same rights and responsibilities as other permanent members.”

Florence ‘DJ Cuppy’ Otedola also made history after hosting an opening session at the UNGA nited Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
