Gaza War: Nigeria Canvasses Two-State Solution

Nigeria has thrown her weight behind the two-state solution to the seeming intractable  crisis between Israel and Palestine.

Hamas, which is mostly seen as a terrorist group by Israel and Western nations but however seen as a liberation force by the Palestine and mostly Islamic nations, gave life to the age long crisis when it attacked Israeli settlements on October 7 prompting Israeli force attack on Gaza.

Nigeria which has since been calling for deescalation of the battle, on Tuesday through its Foreign Affairs Minister, Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar, said the advocated two-state solution should be enforced to allow for both Israeli and Palestinian states.

The Minister made the advocacy while speaking with the press after a meeting with the Palestinian Ambassador to Nigeria, Abdallah Abu Shawesh, on Tuesday evening.

He said Nigeria believes both parties have a right to an independent state.
