Nigeria which dates back to 1962 and has continued to blossom over the
years.
He says both countries hold similar views on major political, economic
and social issues of international concern and are both members of AU,
Common wealth and UN among others which further reinforces our ties.
He says these cordial relations have been reciprocated by high profile
visits between top political, economic and religious leadership of
both countries in addition to facilitating movements of people to and
fro both countries for trade, investment and religious purposes.
He said that Uganda hosts several Nigerian banks including the UBA,
Eco Bank, Global Trust bank, Orient Bank, Guaranty Trust Bank and NIC

Ugandan universities.

host country, which should guide their activities by desisting from
actions and activities that will tarnish the image of their country.
He asked them to be diligent, avoid absenteeism and also exercise his
degree of professionalism.
