Badaru emphasized that nuclear weapons represent a significant threat that cannot be justified amidst pressing socio-economic development needs. He urged Nuclear-Weapon States to fulfill their obligations under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and take immediate action towards achieving a nuclear-weapon-free world.

He highlighted the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapon use, including severe impacts on health, the environment, and economic resources. He reiterated  Nigeria’s support for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and commended nations that have ratified it, encouraging others to follow suit.

Badaru noted Nigeria’s commitment to peaceful nuclear energy applications, praising the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for its monitoring efforts.

Consequently, he reaffirmed Nigeria’s dedication to the total elimination of nuclear weapons, stating, “While the path to disarmament is challenging, we must remain focused and resolute. Nigeria will continue to play its part in ensuring a safer world for future generation,” he said.
