Newly appointed Nigerian Ambassador to Cote d’Ivoire Martin Adamu, a career diplomat from Plateau State on Wednesday 10th February 2021 visited Governor Simon Bako Lalong at the new Government House, Little Rayfield Jos.

Ambassador Adamu told Governor Lalong that he was at the Government house to pay his respect to the Governor and appreciate the support of his administration and the people of Plateau State throughout his diplomatic journey which culminated in his appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari.

He assured Governor Lalong that he was determined to represent Nigeria with all excellence and patriotism as he has over the years received the training for the task ahead.

Martin said although his primary assignment was to protect the interests of Nigeria and Nigerians in his country of assignment, he will do all within his power to also ensure that opportunities for investment and development are attracted to States including Plateau.

While wishing him well in his new assignment, Governor Lalong said the people of Plateau State were happy that he has been conscientious and diligent in his duties to have attained the zenith as Ambassador.
