 The Turkish government has expressed redness to partner Nigeria's Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty and Elevation in the areas of social protection and emergency responses. Turkish ambassador to Nigeria, Hediyat Barakta, made this known during a courtesy call on the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty and Elevation, Dr. Betaydu, in an office in Abuja, describing Nigeria as the rising star in Africa. Barakta said it was important that his country and Nigeria collaborate on humanitarian crisis management, emergency response efforts and poverty eradication infrastructures. What is very important is that they are happy to as soon as possible put boots on ground so they want to open an office for the development, for the Turkish Development Corporation in Nigeria after that agreement has been signed and from this office they can directly implement through the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty and Elevation to reach out to the different states all around the country. So we are very positive that very early next year in January we can get all of this signed both in Turkey and back in Nigeria with the President and we can begin immediate implementation which will help us, number one, tackle humanitarian crisis as well as disaster and then secondly are more importantly we will be able to tackle poverty through the various Development Corporation initiatives that we will be working on with the Ministry. Of course in the field of your Ministry and our country we want to have two agreements to be signed, one on the development area and the other one is the humanitarian disaster area with being Turkish disaster management authority and NEMA of Nigeria and it will give the opportunity to especially in the areas of floods or natural disasters it will have the opportunity to work together and in the field of the development corporation we will have the kind of sustainable development projects that we can help Nigeria as well and then we can work not only in Abusia but all around the country with the local authorities as well for the development of the humanitarian issues in Nigeria.
