    The Nigeria’s delegation to the G77+China Summit led by Vice president Kashim Shettima on Saturday signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Republic of Cuba.

    Mr Olusola Abioa, the Director of Information, Office of the Vice President, in a statement, said the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Mr Uche Nnaji, signed the MoU for the Government of Nigeria.

     

    The signing ceremony, which took place Saturday on the sidelines of the G77+China Summit at Hotel Palco La Habana, was the high point of Nigeria’s participation at the summit.
