The capital city of Abuja became a diplomatic hotspot in mid-March 2025 as two high-profile international visits took place, reflecting Nigeria’s growing relevance in global peace efforts.
On Saturday, March 15, 2025, Dr. Taj Hamad, International Adviser for the Universal Peace Federation (UPF), arrived in Nigeria to meet with Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, Chairman of the International Summit Council for Peace (ISCP). The meeting marked a strategic dialogue focused on peace leadership, cooperation, and Nigeria’s role in advancing UPF’s vision for a harmonious global family.
Just two days later, on Monday, March 17, 2025, a delegation from the Sunhak Peace Prize Foundation in Korea, led by Secretary General Dr. Inseo Nam, also arrived in Abuja. The team came specifically to conduct an interview with Former President Dr. Goodluck Jonathan in preparation for the World Summit 2025 scheduled to be held in Korea.
These back-to-back visits are strong indicators of Nigeria’s significance in global peace initiatives, and they underscore the continuing leadership of Dr. Jonathan as a key figure in the international movement for dialogue, reconciliation, and peace-building.
As the world looks ahead to the upcoming summit, these engagements lay important groundwork for unified action and shared purpose in building a peaceful world rooted in the values of interdependence, mutual prosperity, and universal values.
