President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday in London, the United Kingdom called on the global community to give greater support to countries devastated by terrorism and civil strife.
A statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, said the president made the call while speaking at the Supporting Syria and the Region conference in the British capital.
Buhari, who pledged Nigeria's readiness to support the people of Syria, said that without collective support and assistance from all well-meaning countries, companies and organisations, the humanitarian catastrophe affecting millions of people in countries like Nigeria and Syria could not be successfully addressed.
According to him, the increasingly complex and inter-connected security challenges faced by the global community necessitate increased international cooperation in pursuit of effective solutions.
Buhari, in strong terms , condemned the continuing violence by terrorists against innocent civilians, abuse of human rights and destruction of public and private assets and cultural heritages in Nigeria, Syria and other countries of the world.
