Vice President Kashim Shettima advocated for a two-state solution as the most respectful approach to achieving permanent peace in Palestine. He delivered these remarks Wednesday during his address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York. The Nigerian official emphasized that Palestinian people deserve equal treatment and fundamental human rights rather than being treated as expendable casualties. He condemned violent actions against civilians in Gaza and criticized illegal attacks on Qatar.
Shettima argued that Palestinians merit the same freedoms and dignity that other populations worldwide enjoy. His speech highlighted Nigeria's concern for regional conflicts affecting innocent populations across different territories. The vice president rejected the notion that Palestinian suffering should be considered acceptable collateral damage. He called for international recognition of Palestinian humanity and their right to self-determination.
