The Honourable Minister of Defence H.E. Mohammed Abubakar Badaru CON, mni has reiterated Nigeria’s dedication to the Treaty of Pelindaba, saying that Africa as a nuclear weapon-free zone is a gift to ourselves and our unborn generation.

While he called for support from the entire African continent to the Fissile Material cut off Treaty (FMCT) initiative, he appreciated all friends of FMCT and Civil Society organizations for their dedication and hard work towards the realization of this laudable enterprise.
He added that NPT remained the cornerstone on nuclear disarmament, while FMCT if adopted will strengthen nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty ( NPT).
He urged all stakeholders to support this noble endeavour.
