TICAD9: Tinubu Demands Two Permanent UN Security Council Seats For Africa
President Bola Tinubu has reiterated Africa’s demand for permanent representation on the United Nations Security Council. Speaking at the 9th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9) in Yokohama, Japan, Tinubu said the continent deserves two permanent seats with veto powers and more non-permanent seats, in line with the Ezulwini Consensus and Sirte Declaration.
He praised Nigeria’s armed forces for recent successes against insurgency, describing them as a springboard for national development. However, he stressed that lasting peace requires tackling poverty, inequality, and exclusion. Tinubu urged fresh approaches to peace-building, citing Congo’s mediation-linked investment model as an example, and called for market-driven partnerships rather than aid dependency.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida also pledged $5.5 billion support for Africa during the conference.
