Yippppppppe!

We've welcomed 39 young Nigerians into the EU-funded PLAC Legislative Internship Programme—a game-changing opportunity for fresh grads to dive into real-world legislative work at Nigeria's National Assembly.

Proudly funded by the #EuropeanUnion through our programme, the #EU Support to Democratic Governance in Nigeria (@EU_SDGN ), this internship is all about hands-on experience and making an impact. As the EU’s flagship democracy support programme in Nigeria, EU-SDGN backs the government's efforts to strengthen democracy, while also championing the voice and power of young people in shaping a better future.

[EU in Nigeria 🇪🇺🇳🇬 @EUinNigeria]

As part of the EU's support for Nigeria's political system, @EU_SDGN hosted party leaders to enhance pluralism, democracy, and equality. Goals:explore management priorities, secure leader commitments, commission technical groups, & ensure regular performance reviews. #EUinNigeria

@qatarairways @qatarairwaysar Review your policy!45mins is NOT enough even if flight arrives on time(it wasn’t my case& disembarked first but then wait for the bus to fill up+10mins drive to the terminal+passing security+time to get to the gate!Impossible&NO help from your staff who just tell you to run!

[Ruben Alba @rubenalba]

@qatarairways @qatarairwaysar why do you sale tickets with 50mins transit time in Doha when you know it’s virtually impossible to make it on time? Your staff on the ground tell you to run because you can make it and then close the gate on your nose? Is this a 5* airline service?

[OACPS Secretariat @PressACP]

Nigeria today signed the Samoa Agreement, joining 72 fellow members of the Organisation of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States (OACPS), in a pledge to enhance OACPS-EU relations international cooperation.

Ambassador Obinna Chiedu Onowu represented his country to sign the Samoa Agreement at the OACPS Secretariat in Brussels. The majority of the 79 OACPS member states signed the agreement in Apia, Samoa, on November 15, 2023, which has been provisionally applied since 1 January 2024.

The Samoa Agreement serves as a vital legal framework for cooperation between the OACPS and the European Union, with the aim of promoting sustainable development, fighting climate change and its effects, generating investment opportunities, and fostering increased collaboration among OACPS member states at the international stage.

“I want to thank the European Union, it really changed my life.”

For these students, the UNPLUGGED program funded by @EUinNigeria is a game changer!

The evidence is clear; prevention is more cost effective. Time to #InvestInPrevention!

Advocacy meets art in the fight against Sexual and Gender-based Violence! Happening live in #Lagos: the premiere of the movie #DeafeningSilence, produced under the #EU-#UN Spotlight Initiative. #EUinNigeria

[EU in Nigeria 🇪🇺🇳🇬 @EUinNigeria]

Why did the #EU fund the #DeafeningSilence movie? Art, when properly utilised, is a powerful instrument in the fight against #SGBV. Storytelling, music, and other artistic expressions have long been used to push narratives, change norms, and shift consciousness. #EUinNigeria

@EUNIGERIA takes stock of progress on the Integrated National Financing Framework (#INFF). Together we can mobilise enough resources to achieve the #SDGs; #@UNDPNIGERIA; @MohamedFall; @NigeriaImf; @WBG_Nigeria; #PrivateSector Advisory

Security, including maritime security, is key! The idea is to bring in the private sector & strengthen blue economy. What happens at sea comes to land. At the #RoadtoSchuman we discuss effective maritime security cooperation.@Official_ONSA
