European Union Head of delegation in Nigeria, Ramon Maria Reigada Granda, made the remark in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital while signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and formal launch of the EU assisted Micro Project Programme nine (MPP9) scheme in the State.

“The more the Federal and State governments will be committed to a peaceful settlement and reforming process, the more the EU and other donors will be in position to increase their efforts for Niger Delta”, Granda, who was represented by Dr. Maryam Abdul, stressed. He said the programme reflects the interest of the EU for a peaceful Niger Delta not only for Nigeria but also for the whole region.
